No, mainline Linux kernel is used for Nexus 5, which has Freedreno support for 3D graphics, so there is no libhybris involved in Leste.
OK, then it is a bit better alternative than I actually thought!
Now I wonder would it be worthwhile to build SFOS on that base, skipping the adaptation libraries alltogether?
Are there some devices (sensors, radio, wlan, bt, ...) that are not working with Nexus5 mainline kernel?
