Thanks for the clarification!

We need to get omap4 panda board related changes in meego kernel. It
will be easy to get them in kernel-dev package if we move to 2.6.36-rc8.

I suggest disabling things which break with this move, and fix them when
kernel-dev moves to 2.6.36 release.

Are we ok with this plan?

Cheers,
Ameya.
