Hi,

since I have "lost" another embedded system (noy BBB) in the past due
to too old system software I want to switch from Robert Nelsons 3.8.x
kernel to a newer one (of course: a kernel maintained by Robert
Nelson! :)

My hardware consists of 

Audio Cape A1
LCD7 Cape A2
RS232 Cape A1
Beaglebone Black A5 and C

with the 3.8.x kernel it was possible to use them all together by
disableing the LEDs of the Audio Cape and disabling HDMI and internal
flash (not used anyway).

I am using Gentoo and except for the kernel itsself all software is
compiled "by hand" (read: by gcc) natively on the BBBs.

On the eewiki pages of the Beaglebone Black I saw that either 3.8.x or
3.15.x ist recommended. On the other hand, I think I could remember
that 3.14.x is a long term maintance version...?

I am a little confused now.

Is there is a tutorial/howto which describes the transistion from a
kernel with capemgr to one without and a """decision guide""" what
kernel to choose in the above described case?


Thank you very much in advance for any hint and help!
Best regards,
mcc
