This wiki site has been created to provide general '''hardware and software support''' for the Gateworks Product Families of ARM Single Board Computers (SBC) and Network Processor Boards. [[BR]]
For data sheets and specifications of products please see [http://www.gateworks.com The Gateworks Website]
== Board Families ==
You can find links to source code along with '''Pre-Built Binary images / software ''' that can be programmed onto the board under each family. [[BR]]
* [wiki:newport Newport Family]
* [wiki:ventana Ventana Family]

=== Mainline Kernel / Third party Linux distributions ===
Great efforts have been made to ensure our boards are supported by the mainline Linux kernel and U-boot boot-loader. It's a straight forward process to adapt any Linux distribution you feel is appropriate for your application for use with a Gateworks board, provided the mainline kernel is being used. We are glad to offer support for questions regarding mainline kernel, and U-boot boot-loader issues, though issues that may be encountered in any given distro's user-space are too varied to provide accurate answers. If you encounter an issue in user-space we suggest you utilize forums specific to this distro, or recreate the issue using a BSP Gateworks officially supports, see above. Before selecting a kernel version see our errata pages to check compatibility.
