Root [NEWS] ICS Source Code Released!

Hearing/reading hardware specific drivers are required for video/hardware acceleration.

"Starting with IceCreamSandwich, the Android Open-Source Project can't be used from pure source code only, and requires additional hardware-related proprietary libraries to run, specifically for hardware graphics acceleration."

As much work as he has done with this phone I don't see that being too much of an issue.
 
According to the information released to date, any phone that can run full gingerbread can run ICS. ;)

I'm in the middle of my first build based on the Nexus device tree, the only tree released so far by Google. Once I get my build environment working as is, I'll start looking into the vendor and device trees to determine if it will be possible to port to our hardware. Regardless of what I find, the CM team will probably find a fix eventually. So it's really just a matter of lots of patience. ;)
