-The Linux kernel for CM-FX6 modules provides support for on-board peripherals and abstracts the functionality provided by the hardware.
+The Linux kernel for the CompuLab CM-FX6 System-on-Module / Computer-on-Module provides support for on-board peripherals and abstracts the functionality provided by the hardware.
 Current support coverage is specified at [http://compulab.co.il/products/operating-systems-and-drivers-for-cm-fx6-and-sbc-fx6/ O/S support coverage map] page.
 CompuLab provides ready-to-run binary kernel images, and source code of the modifications and additions made to the Linux kernel to work properly with CM-FX6 modules.
