FWIW the change is listed as adding an "internet tablet."

2.6.30 Arm changes


Whoa... it also says Palm Tungsten T5 being added for support. Does this mean I can run the Linux on my old T5? It's a 416MHz ARM.. this would make it pretty interesting. :)

It's nice to see changes being pushed upstream even before the product is out. I envy their patience.

Kernelnewbies are often difficult to reach when new Linux kernel is released.

1) Wait a few days
2) Use Google cache
3) Use CDN (e.g. CoralCDN.org)
4) Search for mirror (official or copyright infringment)

There are alos OMAP related diffs in the article.

Some stuff is also interestin for Maemo. Fastboot for example (if its not tied to Intel architecture).

I try to read commits linked but get timeout on git.kernel.org and neiher Google cache or CDN works.

Yes, and I'm happy to take advantage of their work. :) It's sad how many embedded folks don't push their changes upstream.

Of course, they profit too because it will be easier to keep the rx-51 up to date and they accumulate community good will and all that jazz.
