It's a standard OHCI chip, probably repackaged in a custom ASIC, but it
works with the same drivers as all the other OHCI devices. You should
only need to add an extra ID in your supported device lists for the linux
drivers to support it. If the driver doesn't work out of the box, there's
a driver bug in general. :-)
Later,
David
