Hi,

Okay, here is a little background and some new issues I've encountered.

We have been using Yocto 1.5.1 earlier to create image for our HWs. Now the new 
HW uses E38xx so I started testing the new Yocto/meta-intel - branches to get 
(better) support for it.

Since the current ValleyIsland support for meta-intel was for Dylan - branch of 
Yocto and also because I wasn't able to create image with working Intel HD 
Graphics driver I started looking for newer versions. Graphics worked with 
VESA-driver, but not with actual Intel HD Graphics driver.  Also the kernel was 
quite old being 3.8.13.

I did some digging and noticed that dvhart/bsp-ng had support for the 
intel-corei7 so that's why I ended up there. I never intended to use it other 
than testing if I can create working image that has working Intel HD Graphics 
for Valleyisland.  Then I tried latest poky/meta-intel combination since 
dvhart/bsp-ng was merged there.

When trying to create core-image-sato using the intel-corei7-64 bsp I ended up 
with this:

ERROR: Fetcher failure: Unable to find revision 
29594404d7fe73cd80eaa4ee8c43dcc53970c60e in branch meta even from upstream
ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 
'git://git.pokylinux.org/linux-yocto-dev.git;nocheckout=1;branch=standard/base,meta;name=machine,meta'.
 Unable to fetch URL from any source.
ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in:

ERROR: Task 73 (/opt/poky/../poky/meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-dev.bb, 
do_fetch) failed with exit code '1'

I'm not sure if that is a Yocto - bug, Meta-intel bug or my bug.

Good to hear that linut-rt - support was not dropped, but merely just changed.

Btw. Is it intentional that in intel-corei7-64.conf the 
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel is set using = and not ?= which makes it 
impossible to override it from later scripts? Or am I doing something wrong 
again? I had to comment out that line to be able to use my own kernel version 
on later tests.
