Hi All,

I added the kernel option CONFIG_HIGHMEM to the Tabor kernel config today. This solved the issue with the RAM size. I also successfully modified the code for the power off support. Power off works again now!

Download: linux-image-5.3-rc6-2-A1222.tar.gz (including Tabor patch and kernel config)

Please test the RC6 on the X1000, X5000 and A1222.

Thanks,
Christian
