Get started using industrial Linux with longevity on conga-QMX6. One way to
minimize time thieves and work effectively with embedded Linux solutions.
Prevas has released a minimal Linux distribution for conga-QMX6 from congatec, a
Freescale i.MX6 based COM (Computer-On-Module) computer module. The release has
been done on the Open Source project OE-lite, an Open Source Integration tool
for industrial Linux distributions.
With the release it is possible for users of conga-QMX6 to start with a Linux
where they can choose all the content themselves during integration, instead of
starting out with a lot of features that is not needed and later must be
removed.
”It is Prevas’ hope that the release will help more developer trying OE-lite
based Linux and thereby getting the benefits of the Open Source project, that
aims at easing both integration and longevity maintenance of customized Linux
distributions” says Product Manager Mads Doré Hansen from Prevas.
If the user doesn’t want to jump into Linux development by themselves, they can
also consider looking at Prevas Industrial Linux for conga-QMX6, here they can
start out with an OE-lite based Linux with a lot of features and safe-update for
conga-QMX6, delivered well tested and ready for use.
The distribution for conga-QMX6 can be tried via
