We are pleased to announce the release of Linaro 12.06.
Linaro 12.06 contains components delivered by all Linaro Teams --Working Groups, Landing Teams and Platform Teams-- and brings an abundance of exciting updates and new features which are integrated on top of Android and Ubuntu. Linaro through these updates, fixes, and new features continue to build the future of Linux on ARM and the 12.06 Linaro release delivers another winning combination off these components.
In the 12.06 release, the Linaro Android Team delivers multimedia enablement on AOSP and those patches are now under review. The team now has automated benchmarking applications (Monkeyrunner) working on both the PandaBoard and Snowball boards.In addtion to the benchmarking now working on PandaBoard; perf for Android on PandaBoard has been submitted to the Linaro kernel maintainers for other ARM based processor boards and lkml. For this release Linaro Android was also updated to Android version 4.0.4 r2. Also of note; the video that Nicolas Charbonnier shot during the Demo Friday event at Linaro Connect Q2.12 in Hong Kong about the improvements to the Linaro Android toolchain continues to create interest in this teams work and the future of the possibilities of Android performance. More information on other exciting news surrounding Linaro Android can be found in the release highlights.
The Linaro Developer Platform Team announced that the Kernel config fragments are now being used by all kernel packages in the Linaro Evaluation Builds (LEBs) and this includes one single fragment for the Ubuntu Specific configs which allows for all builds to behave in a similar fashion. Other updates include all Linaro Linux kernel packages were updated to the latest development trees from Linux Linaro and the Linaro Landing Teams. The Linux Linaro maintenance scripts are now available here ; additionally improvements have been made to the instructions and scripts to allow easier cross-builing of packages using multi-arch with Ubuntu. These improvements can be found here
