Sounds great!

if I send you patches for the jornada820, will you include them in
your tree? I mean your 2.4 as well as your 2.6 trees...

Is your 2.6 tree available somewhere?

PS: if any hacker here understands why, on my j820, I have a problem
in pcmcia whereby attempting to restart cardmgr results in a oops due
to NULL pointer exception in check_resource >>> do_io_probe. This used
not to happen with the hh kernel. Does anyone have an explanation what
recent change there was in this part of the kernel or its
requirements?
