I’M NO LAWYER so ping MS if you’re interested in redistributing a CE image. However there is some sort of exception for students/hobbyists. Yes, MS charges a license fee per kernel. Unfortunately, this would be the standard configuration on a B model so I’ve yet to upload the driver to the Codeplex site ( ).Ĭoncerning licensing. That said, it works to the point of standard HID devices (keyboard/mouse) I’m still working on a bug with a 2.0 hub and multiple low speed devices on the hub. There are also countless projects that would be better suited to Linux than CE.Īs far as status, I’ve been stuck on writing a USB host controller driver for quite some time. This is not a diss of Linux, simply a statement of fact. There are countless projects that might be better suited to CE than Linux.

As a real-time OS, CE could be quite useful on the Pi. Linux is fine, but so is Windows CE/ Compact.
