Patch and config for latest git kernel linux-omap 2.6.34-rc3 with FB Blizzard, LCD Mipid, WiFi p54spi, TS-KBD TSC2301

Buld process described, for example, here.

USB extremely buggy, IT spontaneous reboots with just cable attached without devices (OTG glitch?). Don't use.

WiFi 3826.arm firmware should be placed on appropriate path, for example /lib/firmware/

.config rootfs is ext3 on first partition of internal card.

Kernel with debian rootfs works very stable. I use apache+php+mysql and sometime X.

Fast guide for new build.

I. toolchain

$ cd ~
$ su

# apt-get install gcc-4.4-arm-linux-gnueabi

# exit
