The APF6 Linux distribution can be found here: latest stable installation tarball from SourceForge

Current version

Currently (armadeus-6.0) default supported Linux version for APF6 is: vanilla 3.19.

We also support "legacy" kernels, based on Freescale/Wandboard's versions, to have GPU/VPU functionalities available until they are fully integrated in vanilla/mainline. Details about these kernels can be found here.

Details concerning the drivers usage can be found below.
