OK. So, let's fix that :-)
By all means, it would be really nice to push forward and fix the garbage issue on JZ4780, as well as the transmission issue on AM335x.
AM335x is a wildly popular platform, and it's not funny to break it. So, let's please stop discussing which board we'll break and just fix both. -- Ezequiel García, VanguardiaSur www.vanguardiasur.com.ar
