Changelog snippet:
- Updated to Freescale BSP 10.02.00 snapshot
- Patches from Arnaud Patard at Mandriva
- Divide by zero on booting without a monitor cable, fixed
- rt2800usb driver updated to work - sometimes disconnects, not perfect
- remember you need rt2870.bin to get the mainline wireless driver to work
- switch from mxc_i2c to imx-i2c driver, more stable, ACK error gone
- miscellaneous display driver fixes
- Increased kernel log buffer shift from 14 to 16 so dmesg contains the whole log now (note: this is in the config file)
- Added Freescale's SST25VF MTD driver, although it is not detecting properly yet
- Replaced kernel ASIX USB ethernet driver with ASIX website version (2.5.0)
You can find the latest tarballs and so on at the PowerDeveloper EfikaMX Kernel page. 3D driver compiled for this kernel coming shortly. Apologise for the clumsy "big tarball" release, a version with more complete patches will probably come after the next Freescale BSP snapshot.
Whoooops. I actually made two mistakes here; steev@gentoo pointed out I missed his devtmpfs patches, which I will add in.
ReplyDeleteMore serious, I forgot to enabled forced module loading and disable module versioning so there WILL be another release (replacing the current one, same version, same download link, different tarball) because module versioning breaks the concept of having a 3D driver you can all keep using while reconfiguring your kernels.
Anyway expect this tonight (10pm CST March 31st) or sooner.
Some stability issues and problems with the 3D driver and other tools are delaying this, but there will be a U-Boot update coming with the new kernel.
ReplyDeleteETA Monday 5th April.
Enterprising users may find something on the PowerDeveloper Efika MX pages, any responses on testing the kernel would be much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThe official release is still going to be Monday.
Seems to be fine here - been using since the IRC comment. I've not built it myself, but I'd assume it works. I know that the sst25vf driver now shows the mtd devices, can we still not use the m25p80 driver in the kernel? I plan on looking in to it in a bit (read: Wednesday-ish) but if you know that it still won't, that changes things up just a tad.
