Post Video acceleration in Linux
I've read that the fit-pc2 is capable of handling full 1080p video playback however I haven't seen any mention of whether this is available under both Linux and Windows. There have been other mentions within the forum about the limited nature of the Linux video drivers and so I'm wondering if the Linux version of fit-pc2 will be able to play high definition video.

Can anyone confirm or deny if the system is able to handle seamless 1080p video in Linux?

Currently Linux plays 1080p better than Windows using FFMPEG and vaapi.

The limited nature of the linux drivers has to do with what version of linux you're running. The Ubuntu 8.04 that this will release with will have very good linux drivers with full support for the hardware...

(according to various urls that I've found and posted elsewhere on these forums and am too lazy to repost for you)

The linux open source driver leads to crappy performances but it seems that the intel driver is good.

You can find desirable info at http://www.fit-pc2.com/wiki/index.php/Linux_on_fit-PC2. There is also a list of supported linux OS versions by Compulab. However you can try to experiment with any os you desire to find what suits you best
