Thanks, wobblydoggy.

I found this on the same page:

Tegra 2 kernel source - 2.6.36 (for honeycomb!)

You can get it from here:

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/te....6.36-honeycomb

I'm interested in the fact that he said:

"Unfortunately the kernel was not available in the Android repositories. At first, I tried using the Harmony kernel, since they are both tegra 2 250 chips. That turned out to be major fail. As soon as I was about to give up, I noticed that AOSP had updated their tegra kernel repository with some new tasty branches for stingray. Kudos to these guys for being so on the ball! I was able to compile that up and get a working recovery to obtain root, and then get Superuser on the device."

I'm sure someone tried the same thing, and the harmony kernel didn't work on our Vega tablets, either. Hopefully this should work with little changes to implement.

But, it saves us having to wait for Advent to try and create a honeycomb rom in the future. I hope Paul can do something useful with this... :huh:

EDIT: Here's a changelog for the kernel source too.
