Hi Martin --

I can confirm that the ep driver does work on hpcsh, as I have used it 
in the past on a Jornada 690. Let me setup a cross build environment for 
4.0/hpcsh and I will get back to you shortly with a modified kernel that 
includes the ep driver.

Are there any other options you need while I'm here?

Cheers,
Jared
