Hello, my name is Gustavo, I do not have experience with Beaglebone Black, I am honest with you, BUT I do have strong experience with Raspberry Pi equipments, I developed a project Traceability control with Raspberry Pi equipments running as Thin Clients machines: Design and programming from
scratch of a system to sense daily control of bread factory. Used to control traceability of raw food material.
Technologies used: wxPython, PostgreSQL, Nagios, Raspberry Pi clients connecting through XDMCP protocol to
Slackware 14 server.
In this machines I performed several *nix configurations, (kernel setup, boot upgrades, modules, libraries, etc) so I can work with your Beaglebone Black for sure as Debian will be similar to RasPI.
Please let me know if we can discuss further about this.
Best regards
Gustavo Pettazzi
