Hello,

I updated Matthieu's 2.6.28-patches (http://mcrapet.free.fr) to 2.6.29 today. I 
want to use 2.6.29 for TS-7250 and TS-7800 our projects, thats why I updated 
them. 

Patch 1 (Debounce IRQ) was not necessary anymore (applied in mainline).

I had to restore a change which was made in 2.6.29:
commit 75f4aa15cf05ce6d99c8261cf57dcd749877fd1c
Author: Nicolas Pitre <>
Date:   Fri Sep 5 16:05:14 2008 -0400

    [ARM] unconditionally define __virt_to_phys and __phys_to_virt
    
    There is no machine class overriding this.  If non linear translations
    are implemented again for some machines then this could be restored at
    that time.

=> TS 7250 was such a platform, which overrides this macros (with the 
ts72xx-base.patch). We really should bring that patch upstream...

I also added a patch which supplies newer partition support (see here 
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ts-7000/message/5497)

The SPI-Patch doesnt work at the moment, I get a kernel panic when i register 
the device in core.c (see Attachement). I don't use it, so I just disabled it 
in my configuration. The rest should work fine (Tested on 64MB-Ram TS-7250)

Bye
Stefan
