IIRC that Brazilian org. (name escapes me) had completely finished Harmattan support, but was never allowed to release it for reasons never answered/explained by them.
This is one of my long term goals as well. After I (hopefully) figure out how to get either the TI compat-wireless stuff to work and/or latest backports for hostAP mode to work, BT4 LE would be next.

I have no experience backporting, but going to try. I have gotten much farther in getting TI-compat to compile. It seems to clash with some patches in the stock kernel. There are also things from kernels 2.6.37 and back that are needed. The official patches cannot just be simply applied due to Nokia's changes.

I have a spreadsheet and what I believe are the relevant patch files I'm working from.

Hopefully I learn something and can move onto BT4. I assume IRC will be helpful there from the bluez group.

Meantime, any links to the aforementioned work by others would be immensely useful. Research is easily done in spare time.

Plus I have email addresses of some folks associated with the work if that matters.

Kernel binary, modules, and source updated to kernel-plus 2.6.32.61, pulling in the LTS incremental updates.

This is a bugfix release.

Aside: I can't seem to edit the title anymore!

Hey guys,
I'm having some problems with installing the new kernel...

I extracted all files to the right place, ran depmod and edited ubiboot.conf but after the kernel selection screen I get only a black screen...

Thanks for your work, but when I link to /lib/modules/current and flash new kernel, my N9 stuck at nokia logo after reboot. Any ideas.
Thks

Yes, confirmed.
There is something wrong there, maybe it's the modules (as the module directory is named differently than the image, maybe there's a typo?)

I'll compile it soon and try to find out where it goes wrong.

Allright, downloaded patches and applied on clean Harmattan PR1.3 kernel tree. Everything snaps down nicely, no hanging blocks or anything, good work there.

Configured, Compiled, Made modules, Trial run.
--> same as with Hurrians precompiled image, device goes to hung state.
Time to do a bit of debugging, but that's later. I'll have a good night's sleep before that

Not a typo - the modules directory is named as it'd be after "make modules_install", but for consistency's sake, named the zImage differently

One thing to note is that I noticed that the kernel would boot... irregularly on my device. Probably 1/6 tries instead of the 6/6 tries with the previous .59 release.

For now, I'd advise everyone to use the .59 binaries until the issue is resolved. .60 and .61 are large squashed backports, something might have broke in between.

Yes I noticed that when I built the kernel, that was just a first guess really.
(the device behaves similarily as if it could not load modules for example, it will run in a tight loop with no UI and no reaction to the world... that was the reason I thought it might be an uname issue...)

That well explains it. I tried only to boot it twice
So, I'll hook up my debugging console and check what's going on there, when I have some time to do it.
