Thanks Steen, I get it. :) Yes, the changes were already in place before the model B+ was released. > The firmware files are simply downloaded from here and then copied to > the boot partition on the SD-card. > https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/tree/master/boot > > However, the I2S-stuff is probably not working as they previously was > taken via the P5 connector, and now they are located in the larger 40 > pin P1 connector, but I know that HiFiBerry have made changes to the > kernel, so that it will automatically select the correct pins for the > I2S. I looks like the firmware was updated 3 days ago to include the I2S auto selection of BCM2708_I2S_GPIO_PIN18 (ALT0) or BCM2708_I2S_GPIO_PIN28 (ALT2) depending on PCB revision. > Gordon from the IQaudIO are currently working on a fix to the kernel for > his card as well (it seems like there have been some changes to the > kernel in 3.15 that causes problems for the IQaudIO card) > https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/641 but for the moment > 3.15 kernel will make it impossible to use a IQaudIO card.
