This may be possible to do using the connex or basicx, but not
currently possible using the verdex.

Even using the basicx and connex, I know it worked really well in the
773 revision, and I seem to recall it working in the 1161 revision,
and then I get the impression things have gotten worst since then.

Personally, I don't use the device USB connection, preferring the
network connection instead.

And having said all of that, even if you can get the USB stuff to
work, it will only work for getting at linux. It won't let you get at
u-boot. For that you pretty much need a serial connection.

Using a usb-to-logic-level serial adapter is also a perfectly good
choice as far as that goes (if you only have usb ports).
