OH god no!!! Our v3.8.x is a freak of nature, around 936 patches (1) mostly written by two developers who both left the project. ( i never got personally involved with the capemgr side, other things interested me at that time. ) I just keep things moving and adding support for newer capes till we have a mainline solution.. 1: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/bb-kernel/blob/am33x-v3.8/patch.sh#L72 Regards, -- Robert Nelson http://www.rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
