We should leapfrog to 2.6.26 that is out now instead of calcifying ourselves into a 2.6.24 dead end... this is what happened with 2.6.22.5, it became a magic place we didn't dare stray from and the effort needed to break out was large. That is a bad place to get to. I have been moving debug-tracking / andy-tracking / mokopatches-tracking ~ with Linus' git HEAD for months and we didn't lose control of it unlike before, except one outstanding bug. Earlier this week I started making local branches here called mokopatches-2.6.26 etc based off the master 2.6.26 tag in preparation to propose this anyway. So it's not like we are not on top of the next kernel update. The one issue we have on the tracking tree is PNP support changed and my tracking patch for it was adequate to get it compiling, but inadequate to get it working again, it just fails to probe with an error. So if you want to move it forward, build andy-tracking branch and make a patch on top of this that fixes whatever I failed to get about the API changes: http://git.openmoko.org/?p=kernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=0d501c9d5dbf0e65f7baef8d758c7eb175661f36 - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkiBsKUACgkQOjLpvpq7dMpJKwCgjKTZN5C2xVp3dJhpKSv82z0Q mn8AoIUtiXbRKMyKwg+o64o89TP+rknk =eXo5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
