Trying letux-5.10.y and the annoying display-not-being-loaded issue has come back to bite again, even though we are now baking omapdrm into the kernel in the Pyra config.

Well, for me it is running and I am not aware of bigger issues. But I am not using it daily so that I may miss some problems.
despite not containing the new panel driver yet (afaik).
Yes, the new panel driver will not come before v5.12. But IMHO it has no functional difference. Is just much cleaner and upstreamable code. So no need to wait for it.
Though I haven't tested, I suspect the biggest issue is going to be the DPMS/stuck atomic update issue that is somewhere in the display/DRM code discussed previously and has likely been present since 5.7 ish.
I think there was some fix a while ago which may also be in 5.9. But I currently don't have the Pyra in operation to check.
Generally I think the best strategy for PyraOS would be to use and maintain 5.10.y as the next long-term kernel.

v5.9.16 was just tagged [EOL].
According to https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html%C2%A0the long-term kernels will be:
- 5.10
- 5.4
- 4.19
- 4.14
- 4.9
- 4.4 (maintenance ends in 2 months - but we anyways have no
letux-4.4)
For Letux-Kernels we will follow this scheme.
