Ooh, can you share the details of those EPs? Is your application public?

So what should I do next? I see a few possibilities, assuming anyone is
interested in this:

- I could post a diff from Greg's driver. But I don't have hardware to
test whether my changes will break it for the other devices that it
supports;
Well, it is specifically an airprime driver. My card also presents another two endpoints, but I don't know what to do with them, so I haven't worried about them too much. If they all talk the same thing, then they may as well be in the same driver.

Are you proposing adding some more protocol knowledge to airprime, or just make those EPs appear as more serial ports?

Thanks,
