Hi.

I was considering either Intel's Xscale PXA255 and Motorola's
Dragonball MX1 for a new design based on Linux/RTAI. As Dragonball's
LCD controller doesn't support double panel STN LCDs I decided to go
with Xscale. Besides, Linux support seems to be more mature for Xscale
than for Dragonball. I have a question though: the aforementioned
support seems to be for PXA250. From data sheets and other sources of
information, I learned PXA255 is mostly compatible with PXA250, with
several bugs fixes and newer silicon technology. So, am I right to
assume that I won't have much trouble running Linux on PXA255?

TIA.

Elder.
