I am still working on the OMAP stuff albeit very sporadically. For now I'm pushing my changes into gitorous, but I'm hoping it will go into a proper FreeBSD svn repo/branch sometime in the future (thanks Olivier :)). For what it's worth, there is still plenty to do on the OMAP3/4 port, I think the basics work ok (MMC, DMA, USB, L2-Cache, IIC, ETH, PWIC). The key things that are missing are SMP support and the graphics, both of which I'm hoping to work on in the new year when I think I'll have a few weeks free time between contracts. Thanks, Ben. > On Wed, Nov 30, 2011 at 08:29:43PM +0200, Alex T. wrote: >> Good day guys, >> >> I have a question regarding OMAP4 support in FreeBSD.
