Can you identify them from the above? These URLs are relative to your system, I can not load the corresponding file from this mail. But yes, these patches sound familiar to me and at least some of then have been integrated in later versions of the Linux kernel. The beagle board is supported by the mainline kernel, you have no reason to use a distribution-specific fork. Also note that the VFP support is broken in the Adeos I-pipe patch for Linux 2.6.29. It has been fixed in the upcoming Adeos I-pipe patch for Linux 2.6.31. Patch for 2.6.33, and maybe 2.6.32 should follow soon. -- Gilles.
