Bug Description

The linux-snapdragon kernel is used to enable the Dragon Board 410c based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon SOC. The DB410c is an officially supported platform for the 16.04 Snappy release.

linux-snapdragon is a rebase derivative of the Xenial master-branch and therefore receives full stable and security maintenance by the Ubuntu kernel team. The kernel source inherits from a Linaro landing team branch (http://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/qualcomm/kernel.git qcomlt-4.4) with the following promise for support, "we will maintain the 4.4 release branch throughout this year for DB410c. We will continue the integration branch which tracks mainline, for newer SoC/platforms, but we will still maintain 4.4 for new features (such as Camera and GPS). For WLAN we will also backport any fix that we might come across."

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
