wandboard-quad: mainline kernel 4.3.0 & kodi-imx

[andrenam]

Hi,

I just saw that the linux-wandboard kernel got deleted and replaced by the linux-armv7 mainline kernel 4.3.0.
Does the mainline kernel now support all features on the wandboard quad?
Don't I need the linux-wandboard kernel if I want to (build and) run the kodi-imx package?

EDIT: tested linux-armv7 4.3.0-1 with kodi-imx 15.2-1 and kodi 15.2-1.
kodi fails with a segmentation fault

Got the same issue here with a wandboard dual

Reinstalling
uboot-wandboard-2015.10-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz and linux-wandboard-3.10.17-5-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz solves the problem

[selex]

I did a clean install on an SD card and I'm not getting any HDMI output. It is working though (I can access through ssh). Did I miss something?

Most of the functions are not working with mainline kernel on wandbord. You have to use old kernel 3.10 package or compile it by yourself. The pull requests for working 3.14 kernel with both hw video acceleration and cryptodev were rejected in favour of mainline..
