Understood. But the only things going into the rpi-4.4.y branch now, are making it more stable rather than less stable. As 4.4. is LTS and the next LTS kernel is 4.9, the Pi guys have stated an intention to stick with a 4.4 branch as "stable", I guess, until the 4.9 release. From your POV, I'd suggest there is little risk with following as closely as possible to get the bugfixes and new board support ASAP, with little risk to you or the stability of your distro. Any development now, is really taking place with 4.7 or above. (4.7 is the stable branch in my world, 4.8 development.) sbp wrote: > > What do you think about the new DAC? We haven't had a chance to try it. The Allo Piano DAC? Well, the Piano DAC 2.1 USP being the *2.1* sub output or active crossover..... and the fact that I see that being a long way away from being accepted, driver wise.... given what they were trying to lash together via the pcm512x codec driver to support having 2x PCM5142 DAC's on a single board. The current "basic" driver support negates the USP and just leaves "yet another 2 channel stereo PCM5xxx" DAC HAT. Although, you could argue nicely designed with much attention given to the power supply side of the design. But without the Kali (re-clocker) board sandwiched between it and the Pi, it's nothing special compared to the usual PCM5xxx suspects...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3069 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105997 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
