[meta-fsl-arm] which branch has kernel 3.0.35?

Hi all,

I'm new to yocto, so forgive me if this is a silly question.  I've recently checked out daisy and I'm using a SabreLite board.  I noticed that daisy has kernel 3.10.  I'd really like to use kernel 3.0.35.

I tried setting

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_linux-imx_mx6 = "3.0.35"

In local.conf, but this leads to build errors as described here.

Is there a release branch I can checkout that has kernel 3.0.35?

Thanks,
Joe

For the SabreLite, you should really be using meta-fsl-arm-extra
and MACHINE=nitrogen6x (this board is equivalent to the SabreLite)

Then (if necessary), make these settings in local.conf
   PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-boundary"
   PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-boundary = "3.0.35"
   KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "uImage"

This will get you a 3.0.35 kernel for your board.

Thanks Gary.  I did try the changes you proposed below in the local.conf
file.  Everything built fine, but I still ended up with 3.10 kernel.

So next, I got a new checkout of the dora branch and that one has 3.0.35
in it.  Problem solved!

My next question is this.  I built the core-image-sato image.  I expected
to get some kind of desktop on the HDMI monitor, but the screen stays
black.  Is there a trick to getting the desktop to use HDMI?  I don¹t have
one of the other screens for this board.  Still digging on this one, but
if anyone can quickly point me in the right direction it would be much
appreciated.

Joe
