The same comment goes for Debian, Buildroot, Timesys, Ubuntu, Arch or home-brew userspaces. If it's Freescale's recommendation that this GPU package is the **right** one for production use, our primary kernel branch should probably reflect that. There's no reason someone using another userspace builder can't patch their process to update things. That said, I haven't quite heard this as Freescale's recommendation. Daiane, I don't suppose you want to stick your neck out...? Regards, Eric
