Stefan,

Well, this of course means we loking forward for more GTA01 support in .28,
battery driver comes to mind. :D

I have recently shipped a GTA01 to Balaji, maybe he can help?
Andy can judge best who is in a good position... Getting the .28 kernel to work well on GTA01 is a high priority here.

Yes I think this is genuine diagnostic about edge appearing on RX during GPS wake. I don't know what it means that it appears during transfer,
but I would hazard a guess it can be true.  A long time ago someone
reported in then Bugzilla that if they had the debug cable connected,
they found interruptions and garbage on their GPS NMEA stream.

So you say that there might be hw problems with the uart on the soc? Or a driver
bug?

I asked a couple of people to look at it but oh well.

There's another one which is xrandr rotate, Nelson is looking at it.

ok

This is done by Simon Kagstrom some time ago, it's down in /sys. Maybe
Simon can give some advice.

Cool, that must have slipped through our radar. Simon, is the threshold working
and if how can we use it?

Ah not so fast.  There are two configs in the kernel tree, one is the
moredrivers config that is for unconditional driver availability, but
the other is gta02-packaging-defconfig which has roughly the same module set as the stable shipping kernel. I prefer that we keep the packaging kernel in the kernel tree as far as possible rather than have a private one squirrelled away in one build system. Have a look at it and if you
see things you don't like can we change them here.

Whops, since when you have this other config? Never seen it before.

We can for sure make a sync for the general configs we changed. What we will always do is to mangle the config to build kernel for GTA01 and GTA01 from the same config. Jan, as you made the kernel more modular can you have a look how we
can sync with the packaging config? Would this fit your schedule?

Great.

Well, this of course means we loking forward for more GTA01 support in .28,
