It uses F5U258 chipset. And it works with that patch (posted on this mailing list on 16 Feb 2008): http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/86240 I just wanted to let you know that this patch works well, and it would be kind-of useful if it was applied to linux source. Currently I will need to apply this patch every time when I upgrade my kernel, which is kind of painful because I got used to debian prebuilt linux-image packages :) I didn't subscribe to this mailing list (sorry for that) because I just wanted to let you know that this patch works and nothing more. If this post creates some additional discussion I'll watch it through online archive (or you could CC me if that's not too cumbersome for you ;) -- Janek Kozicki |
