yeah angel, i said that.
  we have 2 options. as they have the source code, why they don't release it ?
  first we do a bomb of requests, if it don't work, we ask to join them.
  if it still don't work, we just have to wait 'till spring 2006.

  Filipe got an answer from them:

"We intend to release our Linux kernel in the Spring of 2006. In the
meantime, I suggest you go to www.pepper.com\linux to get up to speed on

The thing i suggested is to try to convince them to send us the code
they do in few time, some months before spring 2006 :p

Filipe, did you say we were porting linux to the x50v?
What about a mass e-mail bombing requesting the source? >:D
