Mainline Linux 4.4

[marijus]

According to this post http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=1622 linux-4.4 runs on odroid-u3 unpatched now.
It would really be great if we could have a linux-armv7-odroid in the repo. Or does the linux-armv7 work?

I never thought I'd see the day when mainline kernel was running on my original chromebook!

Many, many thanks to the maintainers, this is awesome.

How does it work?

I have an ARM Chromebook (XE303C) and I'd like if there's anything that stops working or decreases performance with this kernel.

Not working for me:

• Sound (does not report DAISY as 3.8 did)
• Video dies on resume (the machine survives)

So I'm running a hacked 3.8 as I need TTY_RFCOMM .... one day.

That's a shame

Thanks for the report!

Just installed 4.4.1-1-ARCH

• Vidoe survives suspend if you use fbturbo rather than armsoc-git
• Still no audio, alas
