Just flashed the 2.6.23 kernel and noticed iwmmxt support in the enabled in the logs... Thumbs up...  Oliver That has been in there since 2.6.16 or something. Sorry, should have mentioned that it had been missing for Akita as far as I remember. In fact since 2.6.23 mplayer from the iwmmxt feed plays movies much smoother- I could not refrain from trying that out  Oliver overlay has been disabled for akita, not iwmmxt. You can't disable iwmmxt in the kernel, since it gets automatically selected when using the pxa270 cpu. |
