so ... have you been in contact with the maintainer of the kernel driver, with 
the problems this driver has, as opposed to your built-in driver?

just wondering if they know what the problems are, and if they have looked 
into your code to see if there is anything in it that might help them at 
least diagnose it?

that way, the kernel driver gets patched, and we all wouldn't have to rebuild 
for the internal driver you have?

you should be concerned more about the functionality of the app, instead of 
the re-route code that fixes a driver problem.

just my $0.02,

Jerry
