Alfs Kernel v08
Now for other cm7 roms and with cwm-touchrecovery
Intro
I've been working with alfsamsung for a while now, and together, we managed to port the CWM-Touchrecovery from Napstar to the Xperia X8 (both for cypress and synaptics)
alfsamsung still handels the developemnt, i will handle the releasing of the cm7-version, and maybe a little bit developement, I'm still learning it
What does cm7 version mean ?
so alfs kernel is generally for gingerDX and gingerDX is build from the cm hero sources, but since the x8 has own sources most roms are from build from them.
so the difference between(regarding wifi) that hero uses wlan(.ko) and x8 uses tiwlan(.ko), so wifi will not work
now with two different versions it's not a problem
anymore just take the kernel that fits your rom(gingerdx or cm7)
What's new
V08 - 03.03.2012
-CWM-Touchrecovery 5.2.8 for both cypress and synaptics
-new cool touchrecovery buttons (great work from alfsamsung)
-new kernel logo and recovery background (made by myself )

- performance

What you HAVE TO DO
-flash adrenolibs
-flash update-rom-chargemon++vold-AlfsKernel.zip
Here a list with roms wich will work without...
-update-rom-chargemon++vold-AlfsKernel.zip
-andrenolibs
- FXP-CM7
I still need confirmations on other rom, so if it works without just post it
- MiniCM7
I will add it soon then.
for further instructions, please check the first post from alfsamsung.
I'm extremlly sorry that it doesn't had the kernel file attached.
I was posting over usb-tether and the file upload apperently didn't work.
Now everything is fine.
