Mobilinux is a discontinued Linux distribution by MontaVista.[1] It was announced on April 25, 2005.
History
In 2005, PalmSource joined MontaVista to collaborate on Mobilinux.[2]
In April 2005, version 4.0 was released.[3] In 2007, version 5.0 was released.[4]
Usage
Around 35 million devices have run on Mobilinux, mainly in Asian markets. LWN.net argued that because it was controlled by a single company and targeted mobile operators, it did not generated a large developer community.[5] It has been used on smartphones and NAS devices. The Motorola used Mobilinux in their MotoMagx OS, for example Motorola ROKR.[6]
Hardware support
It had support for the Freescale's i.MX31 chipset.[7]
