The FA526 core which is at the heart of the TS-75xx is now in the mainline 
kernel and is under heavy development. Most of the development was based around 
a Gemini SL3516 used in the NAS-4220 which also contains a FA526. The 2.6.24.4 
with the cavium patchset (the one from the TS FTP), works for me at the moment, 
but I defiantly want to try a newer ones. 

I imagine there might be a couple of problems with peripheral devices. For 
example, the TS-75xx uses the STAR NIC which I don't think is supported in the 
mainline kernel (maybe it is). We can probably patch it in. Does anyone have 
any advice on this topic?
