<p>I have the "Siyah" kernel on my GS2. I don't overclock, but it did allow me to install busybox, openvpn, etc. It also gets better battery life than the corresponding stock kernel.</p>

I've not used it, but my coworker has it on his Galaxy Nexus phone and Nexus 7 tablet, and has been able to reliably overclock them both without them becoming unstable, and increasing their battery life. Not sure the details on how all that works, but it's pretty well known in the Android hacking scene that most of the default kernel configs for devices aren't terribly optiimized.<br>
<br>I was mostly meaning that with 3rd party kernels, you have more control over what modules are loaded, so you might have a chance of loading it more easily that way, but I have no "proof" of that, more of a hunch.<br>

<p>The website is a bit sparse on details. What's added/improved in this kernel?</p>

I've heard great reviews from my coworker with a Nexus 7 using the Trinity Kernel: <a href="http://www.derkernel.com/jb-seven.php" target="_blank">http://www.derkernel.com/jb-seven.php</a> <br><br>Not sure if it has the required drivers though.<br>

<p>How about the 3Rd-party kernels? Haven't tried one on my Nexus yet, but on my GS2 the Siyah kernel boosted my features and performance.</p><div><div>

Hi all.<div><br></div><div>I've taken delivery of a Nexus 7 tablet and am very happy with it (questions welcomed).</div><div><br></div><div>One thing that I was hoping to do, when travelling with it, was to have some method of using wired Ethernet with it (typically, when staying in a hotel room that has a wired Ethernet drop but poor or no in-room wifi, this has happened a few times).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Plan A is to use the USB "on the go" spec to attach an Ethernet-to-USB connector.</div><div>Plan B is to get a <a href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/160801487354" target="_blank">cheap wifi router</a>, which is more expensive and much bulkier.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I've taken possession of item A, a <a href="http://www.ebay.ca/itm/120946886349#ht_2815wt_1165" target="_blank">$3 thing from eBay</a>, cheap enough that it didn't work I would toss it.</div><div>
<br></div><div>
When I plug it in and run `lsusb` on the Nexus 7, the hardware is seen but there's no driver. I get</div><div><div><font face="'courier new', monospace">Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0fe6:9700</font></div><div><br></div>
<div>When I plug the same device into Ubuntu, it works fine and from `lsusb` I get</div><div><font face="'courier new', monospace">Bus 002 Device 011: ID 0fe6:9700 Kontron (Industrial Computer Source / ICS Advent) DM9601 Fast Ethernet Adapter</font></div>
<div><br></div><div>I've been able to find <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1641274" target="_blank">Linux drivers for this</a> and in fact it's been made to work with the <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1418591" target="_blank">Motorola Xoom</a> and <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705759" target="_blank">Asus Transformer</a>.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Could some kind person here help me turn this driver into something usable on the stock N7 kernel?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><span><font color="#888888"><div><br></div>-- <br>
