Here is kernel 3.0.58

Are you sure about this? The Makefiles still say 3.0.36.

If you browse down to Jan 11 2013 it says linux 3.0.58, but the Rockchip Mk908 Android kernel v3.0.36 from the leaked SDK were integrated into it.
You can also change the branch to Android-3.0, that is kernel 3.0.72 but it doesn't look like there are any Rockchip files integrated into it.
Don't know if any of this works as it may still be WIP.

ill give this a go now see if it finally resolves the scaling issues on one of these sticks

I could'nt find a download link for it. And how could we flash "only kernel" to device?

And how could we flash "only kernel" to device?

With 'RKAndroidTool' which is included in e.g Finless ROM packages.

Tried this just for fun. Built OK but didn't boot on my T428 with Lewy's HFW ROM 1.2.1.
