Is there a SAM460ex equivalent?

Are these X1000 kernels FPU and Altive optimized?

No, there isn't. There is a RC 2 for the Sam440ep (Flex) available.

Thanks my good man, hope SAM460ex development will resume!

How to insert this Kernel to AEON Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? Also, has Ubuntu approved SALE of Linux distro? (this is serious question in FLOSS community, not a joke!)

I've released the kernel 3.14.1 with PR KVM support.

Quote
Support running guest kernels in virtual machines on processors without using hypervisor mode in the host, by running the guest in user mode (problem state) and emulating all privileged instructions and registers.  This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on machines where hypervisor mode is not available or not usable, and can emulate processors that are different from the host processor, including emulating 32-bit processors on a 64-bit host.

Lubuntu 14.04 PowerPC with "PR" KVM enabled on QEMU is faster on my A1-X1000 than Lubuntu 14.04 PowerPC on QEMU on my 2.93GHz quad core PC. That's amazing.

Mac OS X on MOL and QEMU doesn't work with KVM-PR. But it works without KVM on QEMU.
