 Wow that is an amazingly 3d computer on a chip board for less than
 $150 !
 Unbuntu and angstrom linux already ported.

..and Debian, you want the armel architecture and you must first 
set up the initial boot system in qemu on a pc or use a boot-ready
image, or press both buttons and net boot it off your boot server.

 Hardware supported open GL 2.0 spec.

..any word on glxinfo and glxgears on these?  I tried googling.
It should support X up to HD, 1920x1080 or 1920x1200.  
Or is that an hype meaning 1366x768 or less?

..a wee benchmark idea to cut-n-paste: alias aiglxbenchmark='w \
;cat /proc/version ;cat /proc/pci |grep VGA ||lspci |grep VGA \
|colrm 1 4 ;cat /proc/cpuinfo |egrep model name|MHz|bogomips \
;xdpyinfo |egrep version:|dimensions|depth of ;glxinfo |egrep \
-A2 direct rendering|OpenGL vendor ;cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log \
|grep architecture ;cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep flip ;glxgears \
-info  sleep 51 ;killall glxgears ;w ;glxgears -fullscreen  \ 
sleep 51 ;killall glxgears ;w ' , I get about 3295fps and 358fps 
full screen at [EMAIL PROTECTED], this buys me FG at 15 to 35fps 
in a [EMAIL PROTECTED] window with the screen shot server running, 
so, thank you guys for making FlightGear what it _is_.  :o)

 Great 3d graphics and only 2 watts power consumption
 Usb, s video and hd tv 720 out.
 All standard usb peripherial support like bluetooth and keyboard s
 and mice and vr googles.
 
 The fully capable 3d gaming pc just got a LOT smaller and cheaper. 
 (About 2in by 2inches

..the ref manual says 3.1 by 3 inches and 78.74 by 76.2mm, will still
fit nicely in most r/c models, and now I know why I never got around 
to fix my 5.1 Volt flywheel charger blunder, it should feed 5.3V to 
a 4 cell flight pack, the other reason is I poured hot gun glue all 
over it and then shut the tin box I put it in 28 years ago, and the 
(b)eagle wants 4.8 thru 5.2 Volt juice.  ;o)

 and no fan or even heat sink needed!

..any word on how much it heats up in vacuum, 
with only heat radiation to do cooling?

 See youtube for videos of this beagleboard in acton.
 Unbeleivable.
 
 Love to see a youtube vidoe of this tiny board running flightgear

..aye, and it can be done on-board too. ;o)

..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;o)

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
