Well, the defaults for most of the machines we tried it on were a

aye, and I do hope to help out with that. Can't stand it if good  
projects have issues that i think i could resolve;).

I'm still struggling with that a bit, so I'm doing most porting  
efforts on an NSLU2, which should at least help with the basic code...
