I've just booted 2016-02-21 lxqt 8.3 image to get a "dpkg --get-selections >/backup/package-selections" list of what I need to install on my console 8.2 2015-11-12 image to upgrade to the current testing image without starting over.
I noticed that 2016-02-21 8.3 lxqt kernel is 4.1.x-ti-rt whereas 2015-11-12 8.2 console was 4.1.x-ti kernel. kernel options blurb at: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#4.1.x-ti says "it is slated to replace the v3.8.x tree in Debian Jessie, cape manager support is enabled", why the -rt variant now? My current project (BBW running on 2015-11-12) has pretty much zero dependence on kernel version, other than any changes in /sys/class/ directory layout, as its pure C code using a bunch of gpio pins, but I'd like to track Jessie as improvements in things like BoneScript and Node-Red would help a friend with a project -- I've got him started with 3.8.x lxde 7.9 2015-11-12 image on a BBG, while all the "improvements" seem to be in 8.x Debian. --wally. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
