Saw that, thanks for pushing them in the archive.

Mako is already using the kernel from the package, and we pushed the
support for manta today as well (though it needs the camera config fix
I sent to be fully working).

I'm currently testing the maguro kernel, and I know grouper might
still needs some config fixes, but I don't have the hardware to check.

As I said via IRC, let me know if you need any help with grouper, but
that would probably be the only one which we'd need help from the
kernel team to make it fully working. Once it's OK, we can switch the
build to also start using the kernel from the package.

Not atm, and I don't think we should invest much, as they are quite
hard to debug when you don't have serial and such.
