after getting driver from your site http://git.secretlab.ca/  will the 2.6 kernel work fine completely?
What will be the advantage of 2.6 in context to embedded systems.

Actually
I am trying to design is a Video Streaming over RF. I need to transfer 320x240 @ 60 fps video from machine to one / many display systems.

By some method I will try to add a CMOS digital camera to ML310 board (any suggestion) and Probability i need to build a small system for frame buffering and then I heard about the Darwin Streaming server. So i will try to install a tiny Darwin Streaming server on Linux system. Probably I need to write a small application (or may be driver ) also which will fetch frames from frame buffer and handle over to server.

For RF interface i want to go with WUSB2.0 ( wireless USB 2.0 ) but due to some problem my adviser told me to think about blue tooth interface and perhaps i need to work with blueZ.

I am unable to think for the whole setup and connectivity between various module. Actually I need to do this my own but i am not getting the whole picture on which i should work. Can anybody help me out ?? I will be highly Thankful

Thanks and Regards

Mainline 2.6.x has support for the virtex device but it is missing
some drivers for EMAC, TEMAC and some other devices.

You can get the drivers from my tree at http://git.secretlab.ca/ or
from the xilinx git server http://git.xilinx.com

Yellow Dog isn't a very good choice for the ppc405 with no floating
point unit.  Use an embedded distro like ELDK, or build your own using
buildroot or openembedded
