Spectre660's Linux downloads for the Sam440/460

I use this kernel on my Sam460ex with Lubuntu 12.04 and a Radeon HD 4650 PCI-e and, at least for me, works with 2D hardware acceleration.
Mind you that it will not work on Lubuntu 14.04.

Please, let me know if it works for you too as many have tried my kernels without success.

Your archive doesn't have canyonlands.dtb file, is it needed? Can I use from other kernel (3.15 / 3.16 ...) archive?
Can it be used with Debian jessie? or Lubuntu 12.04 is a MUST?
First attempt and doesn't make anything. Can you post here your menu.lst please?
my system setup is:
PCIe4x: HD6750
PCI: SII3114 (1 hdd / 1 dvd)
PCe1x: empty
disabled internal SATA / enabled PCIe1x (with uboot envvar)

need more data?

No, the Debian Jessie release has the same Xorg version as Ubuntu 14.04. Only with Squeeze it would work. They changed something in Xorg somewhere in mid 2013 that does not allow it to work without full GPU support.

By the way, could you please give me the exact model of your Radeon HD 6750? Is it single slot? Because I only found double slot cards and I cannot use the PCI bus otherwise
