[Voyage-linux] ALIX leds and voyage kernel v3.14.12

[Ted Hess]

Kim-man -

Thanks for the quick response -- your kernel works just fine on my 3d3. Good 
to have netdev led-triggers working again.

Hi Ted,

I have a recent built voyage v3.14.12_15.0. This should have GPIO_CS5535 
modules built. Could you check if it works for
you?

http://mirror.voyage.hk/dists/experimental/linux/linux-image-3.14.12-voyage_15.0-1_i386.deb

All my ALIX has been out-of-order so I can't check.

Regards,
Punky
