Beagle board is an ultra low cost, high performance, low power embedded platform based on TI's OMAP3530 Pradeep Chakraborty Saturday, October 18, 2008 BANGALORE, INDIA: Texas Instruments recently introduced the ...

An open-source alternative, Beagle provides fast indexing and searching of all your files.

UK embedded software training firm Feabhas will host a pair of embedded Linux workshops at next month's Embedded Systems Show (ESS).

Slated for Oct. 1-2 in Birmingham, UK, the event also features a "Build Your Own Embedded System" (BYOES) seminar using Linux and TI/DigiKey Beagle Boards.

Linux.com: "I was surprised at the different results I got searching for the word "ethernet." Although it is obviously only a single search, Tracker returned what might be the most relevant result as the top item.

Beagle showed the networking HOWTO as the fifth result (shown as "Networking" in the results), with the HOWTO indexes scoring higher than the individual HOWTOs.

The Ethernet HOWTO that Tracker offered as it's top hit is much more applicable to the search term."

Beagle and Tracker are projects that allow you to index your files so you can quickly search filesystems. Both projects started out with the intention of being used with the GNOME desktop, but have recently made a push to be desktop-independent and work with KDE and other desktop environments.

We'll compare their usability and performance.

The board has so far been demonstrated running full-screen video overlays on top of the Angstrom Linux distribution, Kridner said, with video decompression supplied by the FFMPEG codec collection.

Digi-Key has picked up a low-cost evaluation board aimed at low-volume embedded developers, hobbyists, and students.

The U.S.-based distributor of single-board computers and other embedded development products says TI's $150, 3-inch-square Beagle Board offers a unique opportunity to evaluate ARM's Cortex A8 and TI's OMAP3 architectures.

Ubuntu has an indexing software by default called Tracker. It replaced Beagle which was a mono app. I have been using Ubuntu for some time and have ran into this problem where Tracker simply doesn't show any results
