I didn't notice. I ran chromium with EGL and GLESv2 based rendering successfully with it. I vote for option 1. Option 2 means there wouldn't be an FSL supported kernel in master until January, which is a rather strange situation. I understand FSL wants to maximize the feedback they get, but isn't it important to have a FSL supported kernel available? Yes, it is there in daisy, but master is a reviewed branch, so customers can actually use it. Instead, I'd keep 3.10.17 , but encourage customers and hobbyists to try out the beta, since they would benefit from this as well.
