Nope. I don't want to buy anything. I want to learn. I need the right
documentation to understand how to use the mainline linux kernel on my
nexus 10 + how to apply those patches. I don't want to change the hardware.
I already have my Nexus 10. I need good documentation,focused,concise and
that goes straight to the points to the goal that I want to achieve.
