[OLPC-devel] LinuxBios, the CS5536, and the EC.

Right now I don't have the flash chips yet (Monday), however I do have
some conflicting reports on if the PS/2 ports work out of the box with
LinuxBios or not on the OLPC ATest series, and from data-sheets it looks
like the EC itself starts up with those ports all disabled.

Which leaves me with the question; what configuration (if any) do we do
of the Embedded Controller and the Keyboard Emulation Logic
of the CS5536 in LinuxBios, and where (if any) is the code located?

If we are not at the moment handling getting those configured for access
through the PS/2 ports by the i8042 kernel driver, then we need to get
that handled fairly quickly so things are usable out of the box on the
BTest boards.

Regards.
