AVR32 Linux Developer Blog
03 Dec 2006 - 18:59 in , , by HaavardSkinnemoen
Updated patches for Linux (both 2.6.18 and 2.6.19), U-Boot, Binutils, GCC and uClibc are available. Please test if you feel adventurous.

Also, Linux 2.6.19 has been released with support for AVR32 out of the box.

As usual, there are no guarantees that the patches won't blow up your development board or any other piece of equipment you happen to have on your desk, so use at your own risk. But quite a number of bugs have been fixed, so it might be worth a try.

Unfortunately, even though u-boot 1.1.6 comes with AVR32 support out of the box, no new patchsets against 1.1.6 are available at avr32linux.org yet. Stay tuned for ethernet- and mmc-support in the hopefully not-too-distant future.
