Thanks, I'll check out 3.14 to see how it works.  I'm not using any cape in
particular, but I write a lot of guides for Adafruit's site and want to do
a definitive one on getting wifi to work with the BBB.  Unfortunately
there's a ton of outdated or incorrect info floating around from the
Angstrom days so there's a lot of confusion and support issues.  Does 3.14
support enabling simple overlays like those that turn on UARTs, SPI, etc?
 I'd hate to tell folks to switch to the 3.14 kernel to get their wifi to
work, only to have them see issues with accessing other parts of the
hardware.
