I already though about compiling the freerunner kernel myself having a bit knowledge about normal pc linux kernel compilation. But for this i have to set up cross compile what i never did before. So first i have to find a good how-to which describes how i fetch the kernel with git (never used it) and how to cross compile it for my freerunner on my pc. It would be much easier if i got a working kernel and modules. Maybe andy has a bit spare time to update his website. Else i have to jump in the cold water and do this on my own. :/
