1. Find Matthieu Crapet's patches for the linux kernel, apply them and so
forth. I believe ynezz's patches were an interim thing.
2. Follow Martin Guy's recipe for getting Debian working:
http://martinwguy.co.uk/martin//ts7250/DEBIAN
Again, his website is down for me, but I assure you that recipe worked for me.
It is dog slow over NFS, but much faster than me trying to build everything
myself.

It's doable. I hope it solves your communications issues at the same time.
If TS doesn't have a solution for you, try a broader search: if it's a hardware
or kernel issue, ep93xx is the magic keyword for the ts72xx boards.
