Re: kernel 2.6 status

Greetings,

A vanilla 2.6.24 will pretty much build nicely default. Maybe some minor pa=
tches.

I'll have more information once I can try it myself, get abit fuzzy since I=
 always use the jlime.org git repository.

for people wanting to get latest development snapshot, you can always downl=
oad from jlime.org:
git://jlime.org/jlime-current.git (kernel source)
git://jlime.org/jlime.git (configs / documentation / patches / .... )

Anyhow, 2.6.24 WILL contain (in addition to 2.6.23):
Keyboard support (6xx/7xx)
Touchscreen support (7xx)

Best wishes
Kristoffer
