Sorry folk, little mistake slipped in: the raspberrypi isnt ARMv7 but ARMv6 and as such, not supported.

What would it take to get it supported? Besides all the closed-source firmware needed of course. I've got one, and could get me another SD card to install images there for testing. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Have a lot of fun, The ARM Team I have the ODROID-X and I installed odroidx-20121112-openSUSE-12.2-ARM_FOR_HDMI.img to replace Ubuntu 12.10.
I have used the 12.3 repo to upgrade it and on a number of occasions it powered off during zypper dup. A check found the board was running at 1.7GHz so I now have the governor set for ondemand. It also powered off installing Hardkernel-Mali400-OpenSUSE-12.2-MultiInstall so I'll wait for the 12.3 version as mali400 support is something I need for the quisk SDR (Software Defined Radio) application which otherwise renders every spoken word unintelligible by video hogging CPU resources. Hardkernel are finding it difficult to get the mali400 driver working in kernel 3.6.x on Ubuntu so it only works 3.0.x kernels. The max98090 sound driver only exposes mixer controls SPK and Mic but we think later kernels should expose more controls. 12.3 has installed kernel 3.7.9-1.1 but it's still running 3.6.6. Everything in /boot is OK, but in /odroid-boot it still has 3.6.6 uImage and uInitrd. How do I create uInitrd for 3.7.9-1.1????? Otherwise excellently done. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
