I contacted the manufacturer, and they provided me with a firmware upgrade tool and the firmware version CDVL(as opposed to C5VL). It seems they fixed the problem with their firmware in the latest version. I'm not sure whether or not it is worth fixing the 2.6.x kernels to support the broken firmware, as they seem to offer the upgrade to all customers anyway. -- Andrew > > -- > Ueimor > ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through NZOL Webmail: http://webmail.nzol.net/
