Carlos,

    It was actually me who contacted IBM all over the place to get info. 
At they end, they did with some link that  helped us in the mailing list.

    But yes, you should contact IBM, do the iniciative and ask for the 
Linux Support as well. At the end, is not going to be an IBM sd slot 
reader, so you will need to ask IBM and the maker of the SD slot.

    With HDAPS, I contacted almost every center in IBM, called them, 
called Analog Devices Senior Engineers, Managers, and whoever would get 
the information to someone upstairs to inform them that, there will be 
spam until they release something. (Maybe IBM is used to this and can 
handle ignoring people, but at least they could that people was looking 
for the info.

    Go for it, call whoever you can and talk to as many as you can. But 
I bet you will end up talking with the main manufacturers of the device.
