Yes, it all GPL. It is not only HTC Asic3 driver but all the kernel
source code and patches, everything sound, battery, etc. everything,
Mvista done most of the work patches by sharp and others. The good thing
is it is the lastest 1.5 ROM source + patches for Linux Sharp SL-A300.
Older version of the kernel as well. The download link also includes
other Sharp Linux PDA but I think OpenEmbedded has downloaded this
already and improved as I can see it their CVS. SL-A300 source is very
important to H4000 devices because of the HTC Chip(HTC 30H88028-00
2226560XB101 JAPAN 0320EAI F0103ZAF) as the Companion Chip for PXA CPU.

The sad thing is SD driver is not included. But I guess we can use the
binary SDMMC.o for SL-A300 as well like the openembedded did for other
Sharp Linux PDA in OZ releases. I think we can do that later on.
