Ah, ok got it.

Well . . . since it's been well over a year I think the video drivers need
priority. This is something that I personally have no interest in,
*HOWEVER* many do have interest, and I think it is high time TI made an
effort to work with the community on this.

>From the outside looking in, it very much looks like TI is dragging their
feet in this respect, and in a way reflects that TI has no pride in their
products. Surely, there is much more to this than I realize, but that
really is no excuse.

So my point here I suppose is that if one business can not provide a
working part, then perhaps it is time to look  elsewhere for the specific
part. Being an American myself I prefer to spend American, but a working
part that has no software support is pretty much useless. That also doesn't
mean half fast. . .
It means working period, not only on x.y.z kernel running a single OS (
Android ? really ?! )
