The release with the "issue" works fine, I'm using it on my PandaBoard
ES. The issue is that we're having to ship a F-15 kernel because the
F-17 kernel crashes on boot. I doubt either Debian or Ubuntu ship a
3.3 kernel yet. Other than the older kernel it works fine although it
doesn't yet work with X although we're working to get that resolved
too.
