Correct.

I saw that earlier. I thought that that method relied on the gpio_led
driver? I want to use the gpio_led driver, but I believe the underlying
gpio code for the 440EP is not done yet.

If *either* assumption is wrong, let me know! It would be one less
driver (the warp_led driver) that I would have to support outside the
mainline kernel.

I believe, if the platform update gets accepted, that in 2.6.26 the
Warp will be usable with the the mainline kernel. You will just lose
some functionally, such as the SD driver which has already been
rejected.

Cheers,
