Re: MT9T111/MT9T112 aptina camera driver in linux-imx

[John Weber <rjohnweber@gmail.com>]

That is not the right repository.  If you look at the recipes in meta-fsl-arm 
for the kernel, you'll see that the SRC_URI for linux-imx points to Freescale's 
git repo, not github.

I'm actually not really sure what that repository is on github.  It looks like a 
fork from a v3.5 mainline kernel with no commits from Freescale.

This is basically the one we're using now in meta-fsl-arm master (not danny). 
You'll need to check the commit that is checked out:

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/log/?h=imx_3.0.35_1.1.0
