  I've got the LSP, and have booted it on the ML40X.
 
  In my opinion it is currently unstable, but that is my opinion.  I've not been able to keep it powered up for 24 hours without it locking up on the RS232 serial terminal.  Also, running updatedb over nfs causes it to abort with a kernel panic, although that might be an interraction with the nfs server.  (Although even if the nfs server dies (which it did not), I don't expect a kernel panic).

   I have had it run over 6 hours without issue, so I expect subtle memory leaks, not serious problems.

Frank,

due to my understanding of the GPL (and i have already invested some time
in understanding the various flavours of open source licences), you should
contact Montavista, and ask them for the sources.

This board adaption is derivative work of the GPL Kernel, so the result of
this work also falls under the GPL, and has to be made freely available
under the terms of the GPL.

Subject: MontaVista 2.6 Kernel support for Xilinx ML40x


I noticed that MontaVista now has their Pro 4.0 version (2.6 Kernel)
available for the Xilinx ML40x series of boards.  I would assume that
means driver support for at least most of the hardware on the boards.
Is this code that should be freely available?  How would one get a copy
of these drivers?  I am interested in drivers for the ML403.

Thanks,
Frank
