Nope, at least not yet. > > Were there a lot of changes necessary for 2.6.30? A link to the > patchset would also be nice.

Only needed a few changes, which I've already started submitting to openmoko and upstream. More of a problem was extracting all the s3c changes from the openmoko kernel tree as it is not possible to simply rebase the tree with git rebase. But as most of theses changes have been merged for 2.6.31 it will be much easier to get 2.6.31 supported. We also did a lot of cleanup and stability fixes to openmoko specific device drivers, I certainly want to submit my changes but I'm not sure if they will get accepted as some are basically complete rewrites and also get rid of conceptually broken sysfs entries. But as those are considered public api and there could be some application somewhere using it, I'm afraid there people who will reject such changes (See the Xglamo in kernel fixes for broken userland madness) Our patchset is available at [1] and [2] - Lars [1] https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/s3c24xx/patches-2.6.30 [2] https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/s3c24xx/files-2.6.30 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
