Phoronix benchmarks of the OMAP4 BandaBoard ES with 16GB SDHC card running Ubuntu 11.10 desktop for ARM and then a daily snapshot of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin from a daily pre-installed OMAP4 image from 24 January 2012. The Ubuntu 12.04 image is using the hard floating point ARM build for OMAP4. Testing for a future article on Phoronix.com by Michael Larabel. Added in now is the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 2012-01-26 packages, which have a new kernel that properly (finally) supports cpufreq on the OMAP4660 hardware so now she can run up to 1200MHz (what it's supposed to) and offer more compelling performance.
