This is work we pulled in from the community, though my name is on the author field, I did not author the patch (a bit of a mistake on my part). It's not a priority to make it work at the moment; however, the full documentation is available on the device so feel free to debug. I'd also check the archives of this list for more information on the problem. Like Ian mentioned, it's not a device that we recommend folks use.
