Hi Stacey,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I saw that site earlier but the version 
mentioned is 4.8 and the kernel config is not compatible with the 5.x 
version of the kernel.  I will drop some messages maybe someone else on 
this list has one or can tell me if the a21p is close enough that I 
could also try that. I have a 600e but the hardware is very different.

Sincerely,
Brendhan
