[Gumstix-users] Dummy level questions

[Matt T. <mth...@li...>]

Hey guys, what's up?

I just got to know about this great product last week and I have added myself to
this list. The way you guys are responding to some of the questions here are
amazing! Being just a Linux user and real dummy on the embedded side, I like to
ask you guys some basic question.

1) What is the longest uptime that is recoded on one of these boards?
2) Does it have any LCD/touch screen support off the board or do I need a custom
daughter board?
3) How about RS485 support & what is the limitation in terms of bandwidth?
4) Any hardware level watchdog support available at this point?
5) Since on board sound is not an option, is it possible to add some sort of PCI
controller and get a PCI sound card added to it?
6) What flavor of Linux are you guys suggest for the gumstix?

Thanks for your time guys and thanks for the wonderful job!


Matt
