This page contains links to information about Linux kernels, packages and software development for CM-X270 modules.

CompuLab Linux support for CM-X270 includes modifications of Linux kernel and example file system image based on Debian Linux. It is possible to use other embedded Linux distributions and environments. The CM-X270 platform is supported by Poky Linux and OpenEmbedded, and Ubuntu Frisky should work on CM-X270 but has not been tested yet.
