Hi Otavio, I have added GCC 5.2 build support to the 3.13 Timesys Linux kernel. We investigated Linux 4.1 about a month ago and found that there was some missing core support for the Vybrid Tower: QSPI, MCC v2.x, USB Host, NOR Flash with jffs2/ubifs, and touchscreen functionality with the TWR-LCD-RGB. Our goal is to mainline support for these or to coordinate with Toradex to add support to their 4.1 kernel, targeting the April 2016 Yocto release. I will submit the 3.13 patches for you to review - at the very least, these will provide complete Vybrid support for this coming release.
