Do you have proper error messages, code examples or test cases? I havn't heared of problems with the arm11 toolchain recently. We currently have problems with floating point / NEON with the cortex-a8 toolchain (sometimes floating point registers contain wrong values), but this is not debugged yet. But nothing on ARM11 so far. rsc -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | -- ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
