I removed support for the SM502 because I could not get the X-org stuff to work only console.
The dual console was messing up the Radeon console.
USB audio devices work so something like this should be cool for Linux audio .

Will try it ASAP, but I just have only internal SM502 sound not PCI/PCI-E soundcard.
BTW does 3.14rc it support internal SM502 sound ? If not, what is needed to try to enable/add it?

Thank you.

These kernels have all kinds of multimedia device support so I invite everyone to try all the USB devices that they may have.

Welcome to the world of tomorrow!!!

Installation went fine, but upon restarting to load debian from HDD it didn't load, just a black screen.
Copying uImage 3.14.0rc7 over 3.14.0 in /boot (and copied lib/modules too) and restarting again machine worked fine I have debian on screen.
Updated to 3.14.0rc8 and again everything booting fine.
Downloaded 3.14.0 and copied over "old" uImage and /lib/modules boots again fine system. ¿:-/

Code: Select all

root@Sam460ex:/home/javierdlr# uname -a
Linux Sam460ex 3.14.0-Sam460ex #1 PREEMPT Mon Mar 31 07:35:17 AST 2014 ppc GNU/Linux
Will try another reinstallation from scratch to see if I wasn't lucky or the ISO has something wrong when installing on SAM460ex.

EDIT1: did another try (without desktop & base, just plain console linux to make it fast) and upon first reboot system again black, then did a second reboot and everything is fine, so maybe some memory trashing causing such problem.
Note to myself: after installing linux on SAM460ex better poweroff mahine instead of reboot (or try a 2nd reboot) :-)
CONCLUSION: CD installation on SAM460ex is fine and kernel 3.14.0 works fine too.

THX & THX
