Both patches applied, as they are also part of the Ubuntu kernel for Nexus 7. For the larger I'd need at least a device to test, can ask for additional help next week, but this should get you going already. Should be part of our daily images next week (once we finish the infrastructure for public image build/publishing). Thanks for the contribution, at least the first one I sponsored for this project :-) -- Ricardo Salveti de Araujo -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
