No, those other boards don't matter.
Huh? Of course they matter.
Marc is not responsible for them.
Sure, but still the boards should not be broken by any patches, right?
So, I give you two options:
marc, if you want, fix the other boards.
ELSE,
marc, commit, and I will submit a patch to fix the other boards, since I own most of them ...
FWIW, I don't think the fixes are very hard. I'll see if I can provide a patch.
I am debating removing OLPC from tree; comments?
Don't do it. Thanks. Removing working code is not a good option, and there may still be people with rev_a/btest boards out there. Also, the code is very useful as a reference for other boards etc.
Please also don't forget that there will be _millions_ of OLPC machines out there eventually. Whether or not they are _shipped_ with LinuxBIOS doesn't matter. The OLPC is designed with hackability in mind (at least that's what I read and heard in many presentations) and there _will_ be people who'll want to replace OFW with LinuxBIOS.
The code should definately not be removed.
Uwe.
I am trying to bring olpc and rumba up to the geodelx patch level and I am hitting a build problem that I can't seem to figure out. I get the following build error.

I get this on both platforms. Any idea what the problem might be? Marc
