Best to discuss technical requirements, esp. for robotics, via the 
mailing list:
http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Mailing_list

Tech specs are here:

    Hi,

    I'd like to see if gumsitx has a solution for my project.  I'm running a
    Lynxmotion SSC-32 servo controller in a robot. This device has true
    RS-232 as well as TTL level serial communication.  This device also has
    A/D inputs as well as digital I/O.

    The main communications for the servo controller will be serial.  I
    could also use the I/O on the controllers but it would more responsive
    to have the sensor outputs go directly to the gumstix to save a
    little time.

    I want to run the minimal amount of computer hardware needed. With this
    in mind here's are my software immediate requirements:

    Communications to my Linux laptop.
    Communications to the SSC-32 servo controller.
    Standard Linux software.
    Perl

    In the near future (if not immediately) I want to add:
    802.3 wireless.
    Web server.

    Please forward your recommendations.
    Thank you,
    Reid Travis, Compuman Inc.

    P.S. The tech documents on your website are still not available.  This
    has prevented me from specifying this hardware myself.
