Customers of popular Intel XScale-based IOP342, IOP321, IOP331, IOP332 and/or 80219 I/O processors can get free 14-day trial LinuxLink by TimeSys subscriptions, which come with the Intel hardware development kits for each of the processors. LinuxLink is the only commercially-supported Linux solution for the new IOP342. LinuxLink by TimeSys is a subscription that includes code for embedded Linux, code updates and a developers forum where developers from TimeSys and processor manufacturers answer embedded questions. The subscription enables developers to rapidly create their own commercial-grade custom Linux platforms.

LinuxLink delivers immediate access to the latest Linux port to Intel XScale processors, which includes hundreds of cross-compiled packages; a processor-optimized cross-development environment; alerts to relevant updates; and Developer Exchange access to interactive support from TimeSys, Intel, and the Open Source community. The combination of features available exclusively through LinuxLink equips new Intel customers to immediately begin Linux development, while providing existing customers with access to the most up-to-date embedded Linux resource for their processor.
