Thanks for the pointer.

Which board(s) has this been tested with (so I can look at the configs)?
What are you using to test it with?

I noticed that your tree is 2.6.30-rc7, Tomi's is -rc8.  There are quite
a few differences (> 1MB patch file).  How can I reconcile what you've
changed with my working tree (which is based on Tomi's 2.6.30-rc8 tree)?

Thanks for any help
