Remote hardware debugging is really hard and requires some remote (hardware) configuration to see what's goining on and have a way to enter debugger etc. Since msk(4) is still behind in newer controller support I should have had to sit down and write a patch for it. In these days it's getting harder to find spare time and there are too many drivers in tree that needs attention. If I manage to have a patch I'll let me know. -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon
