[Buildroot] Buildroot on Kwikbyte KBAT9261

[Jorge S.]

Dear all,

I've just ordered one KBAT9261 from kwikbyte, wich is AT91SAM9261 based, i'm
just planning to build a custom board based on the AT91SAM9261 and use it as
an HMI.

Somebody here tested buildroot on an AT91SAM9261? Does it works to build any
kind of Xserver? Any library available on buildroot to use on my graphical
applications?

Thanks in advance for your time.

Regards,

Jorge.

There is support for the AT91SAM9261EK, but it is less tested than the SAM9260/63.
Don't know the H/W of the KBAT9261, but if it has a dataflash then you should
probably be OK.
There is very little support in Buildroot for AT91 with parallel flash.

X is not well supported in Buildroot.
Three versions, but I have not succeeded in building any of them.
