I just saw that at XDA, it's about time! Dev's get on it and let's get some custom kernels up in here!

Anyone think these new kernals will allow our hdmi port to finally work on some of these sense 2.1 + 3.0 ROMs

 

[ocnbrze]

most likely yes. but the devs will have to add support for it. also not sure if anything in the mirroring needs to be changed or not as it was originally written for froyo.

Ha! It looks like my wife picked up her Sprint HTC EVO 4G at the right time.

Less than two weeks after purchase and now the kernel source has been released. Awesome news!

Besides being able to change your CPU (over/under clock), what else will this open up for us?

HDMI mirroring, volume tweaks, more speed tweaks, and other goodies.

is it as lengthy a process to customize a kernel as it is to, say, "make" a rom? just wondering... would you say we are looking at days, weeks, months until the new kernels come out???

I'd say a few days for the first couple to come out. I'm sure toast will be amung the first to get one out.
I swear new roms were appearing the same day they released the source for GB on the EVO.
