This sounds great :-) I see that in the patch usb2 is not enabled in the kernel by default. Is=20 there a timeline for it to be enabled and/or could you provide an alternate= =20 kernel config with usb2 enabled (temporarily)? Lastly, is there a web-page where one can check up on the progress of the=20 integration of the new code (and the removal of the old code) [preferably a= n=20 up-to-date web-page].=20 Thanks for the great work Regards David --nextPart1417307.G4x0lHzYpO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBIrCfqUaaFgP9pFrIRAgltAKCBQAXbbXT+Z4gx48kd8mWgFsfBqQCcDipW yjR45oIPj9slbocW/8Lex7E= =gWAc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1417307.G4x0lHzYpO--
