No, they so far have steadfastly refused to supply information about bugs
and errata in such a way that we could use them in an open source driver.

ie: you cannot get anything without an NDA that basically forfeits the
souls of your next 5 generations of offspring if you even mention there
might be bug in the hardware to your next door neighbor with a quiet
whisper.  OK, that's overdoing it :-), but you get the idea of the problem.
Their NDA process just doesn't cater for open source development.

Cheers,
