Comment 1 Yi Zhao 2013-11-22 06:17:37 UTC 
This network interface can work on 1.6 20131119 build.
git rev: master/215dab864e7cf74394840621ad0754db593708f1
Comment 2 Yi Zhao 2013-12-18 07:50:20 UTC 
This issue is fixed in 1.6 M1 and 1.5.1. We can close this bug.

Verified it with 1.6 M1 rc1 build and 1.5.1 rc2 build.

Comment 4 Darren Hart 2014-03-13 15:14:58 UTC 
This BSP will be replaced with one for the BeagleBone Black. For Beagleboard xM support, the TI BSP should be used instead of this one. Closing as will not fix.
