First of all, this is definitely the correct mailing list for the question!

Second, I personally haven't played with Pandaboard for several months now 
(see the previous email about best effort...), but one of the options would be 
to look into latest code in this repository:

http://dev.omapzoom.org/?p=integration/kernel-ubuntu.git;a=summary

Unless someone else comes with a more obvious solution (Roger, any hints? :) 
to your problem, I would recommend looking into one of the latest branches in 
the above integration tree.
