So, any help would be > appreciated. Those same patches are merged into the 2.6.37 kernel tree here: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/linux-yocto-2.6.37/log/?h=yocto/standard/pandaboard So if you do want to use the linux-yocto kernel, you could set your preferred kernel version to 2.6.37 and you'd get that kernel and branch for the board. But like anything, nothing is completely simple, the support in the 2.6.37 tree was contributed in an effort to add some more board support to a yocto tested/standardized kernel. There are multiple sources for pandaboard support, with different functionality (i.e. deeper, different kernel version, etc), different integration and different goals. i.e. angstrom and meta-texasinstruments. To use the 2.6.37 support you'd need a configuration of the machine and a meta layer defining the userspace. There was a prototype one that floated around, but it was being re-worked to use layer tooling and not duplicate effort that is in other layers already. If you like, I can locate that layer and send it along, or you can try out the other references I mentioned (others may have better / more detailed information).
