I was wondering what the status of the 3.x series kernel on the Genesi is. I had dropped in IRC a few weeks back and heard it was being worked on.

Hi Jeff,

It's being worked on, but has some issues with regard to IPU, HDMI output, and a couple of other issues.

Johan.

Are these available for 3.X at least as a patch? Any estimations when these will be supported upstream?

The openSUSE ARM port uses the 3.X kernel, and without these functionality one needs to use the old 2.6.31 based Genesi kernel to boot openSUSE ARM on EFIKA MX.

As of yet it's not in a working state, so no patches yet. They will become available as soon as we have it working, and yes we will be submitting the patches for inclusion in mainline.
