Note, there will be some conflicts, and I think there's a random qualcomm branch somewhere on code aurora somewhere that has those problems resolved if you have problems with them. good luck, it's possible to do (I have a phone running the latest 3.18 release on it with a qcom chipset), but it all depends on exactly what device you have as to how easy/hard it is going to be! greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
