I've given Tapani's 3.0.35_4.1.0 kernel a try on Wandboard and it seems 
to work well with the prebuilt Ubuntu images that they post on the 
Wandboard site, but I (and others) have seen some stability problems 
with it in Yocto during boot.  I haven't spend any time trying to 
isolate the problems with it because it didn't seem that pressing of an 
upgrade.

I would rather spend the time upgrading straight to 3.10.17 assuming 
that it is going to GA from Freescale sometime in the near future. I 
have some features working on it but not enough to justify making it the 
default kernel yet.  I'll get more time to spend on that towards the end 
of next week as this week all of my free time is spent working or on 
another pressing project.

If anyone else in the community wants to help fix this in the meantime 
by working on 3.0.35_4.1.0 for Wandboard, don't let me stand in your 
way.  :-)
