Hi -

You can get the FPU to work with the 2.6.24rc3 Linux (I got it to work just
yesterday).  There are a couple of small changes you have to make to kernel
config files and to one of the .h files, plus you need to compile with the
-fshort-double flag to convert all doubles into floats.  Let me know if you're
still interested and I can post details and/or patches.
