Ok, good to know. We don't know if Kyle is using dropbear of the
full-fledged openssh. That might make a difference.

Ok, great.

You could probaby diff their 2.6.29.6 kernel with the official
2.6.29.6, and see what their changes were, port them over to a new
kernel release and even get them merged so that you can benefit from
newer kernel versions.
