FYI - I have upgraded st2205term to allow a custom command rather than the default 'bash --login' to be specified and bundled a little curses based statistics utility that reformats dstat output.

LCD4Linux is proving to be too clunky/buggy/fussy/complex for my needs. I'm thinking of adding some system statistics to st2205term to act like a "screen saver" when the terminal is not in use. I don't want to write yet-another-monitoring-app so I was thinking of just running dstat behind the scenes and reformatting the output using curses on the st2205term terminal.

Hi gorgone, I've been using your kernel and I'm liking it a lot. If its not too much to ask could you enable the MCT-232 serial driver in a future release? I need it to use the serial port on my Targus dock. Thanks. -PGby petergunn - Debian
Targus ACP50US Universal Dock with Video is a USB notebook docking station with several USB devices available using one USB cable from the dockstar. It can be found online for a reasonable price. It comes with a beefy 3A power adapter. Devices: # lsusb Bus 001 Device 044: ID 0711:0230 Magic Control Technology Corp.

FYI - same distortion issue with Targus ACP50US Universal Dock (C-Media audio) if you power the speaker from the Targus hub unless the isolation cable is used, but it is fine if you power the speaker from somewhere else - like one of the dockstar's usb ports. Sound is good with the same alsa config as the $2 adapter. -PGby petergunn - Debian

I would guess these errors stem from trying to use USB1.1 sticks. The Dockstar has only one true USB2.0 port and that has a 4-port USB2.0 hub plugged into it to give 4x USB ports. When a USB1.1 device is attached the kernel gets confused by the USB2 hub and tries to communicate with it at 480mbits which is far too fast. A quick bit of googling turned up this post. -PGby petergunn - Debian
