Hello,

Is it still the case that all Atom solutions have built in video support? So, if I wanted to use Atom for a headless solution, I would have idle video hardware.

If this isn't the case, can you please point me to the best Atom solution to run a headless (yocto) Linux embedded system?

Thanks,

Bob

All Intel® Atom™ Processors currently have GFX hardware of some kind. Any can run Yocto with or without graphic. You control that with the recipes and how you edit them. To answer your question as to the best, that depends on if you are needing a certain set of hardware features or whether you are doing a component design or looking for a board. The n450 and cedartrail have commercially available boards available in form factors like mini ITX, etc. E6xx and emenlow have a lot of boards available from members of the Intel® Intelligent Systems Alliance. Check out edc.intel.com for a list of members and links to their boards. http://www.intel.com/design/network/ica/index.htm#iid=1613
