All,

I'm happy to announce the first 11.07 build for generic Panda and Beagle C4. Unfortunately Beagle xM doesn't boot, but Panda and Beagle C4 look great!

First of all, thanks! Thanks to both you and the entire Linaro team. Thanks for updating the BeagleBoard community and advancing the state of software for ARM and enabling BeagleBoard owners to evaluate those improvements for their own use and to contribute back to advancing the state of software, especially in this case Android.

I hope that it is not seen as too much of a distraction to ask my questions below. I know that many answers can be found on the web, but I'd like to get your specific opinions about the answers and where to find them, since you are publishing these release notices and reaching out to the broader user communities.

What is the issue with the BeagleBoard-xM? Where do I find out about the issues and introduce fixes? How do I find which x-loader/u-boot/kernel you are using?

https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/beagle-11.07-release... https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-11.07-release/

I'm using a only tracking tip approach, which should align with our new CI push. As the tip's stabilize I'm going to advance the release. This way people will have a bleeding edge build and a stable build.

Are you keeping the x-loader/u-boot/kernel rebased on the mainline projects? How are the Rowboat project and this project utilizing each other?

Many, many, many thanks to John Stultz and Nicolas Pitre whose diligent work on 2.6.39 we were able to pick up.

This release differs from 11.06 in:

Linaro 2.6.39 HDMI comes up in the best resolution (no more 640x480 for the upstream focused build).

I don't like the term generic build so I'm calling these upstream-focused builds.

The next jump will be to 3.0.

As always docs are at:

Other Docs https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/GetSource https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/BuildSource

These builds can be tried immediately with:

On a Pandaboard connecting to a DVI monitor via an HDMI to DVI converter cable, the monitor will remain blank after the board boots up and a "ps" shows normal Android applications have been running.

The same problem was with earlier Pandroid releases but with the latest L27.12.1-P2-pandroid_v2 the DVI monitor is working on the same hardware setup.
