Re: Kernel 3.8 plans

good info. 

I just started building the 3.8rc2 for kirkwood based on the config-3.6.10-6.fc18.armv5tel.kirkwood.
only one patch needed to be added so far. It imported without prompting for any extra features. However,
I doubt this platform is the unified kernel... (?)

>From my understanding the native tegra3 support didnt make it into 3.8 kernel... it had to wait until 3.9. (?)
