[Libdlo] Arkview 1612

[James Baron]

I've seen at least one other person with questions regarding the Arkview
1612 which apparently uses a DisplayLink compliant chipset.  Trying to get
this working on a Sheeva plug.   Doesn't work for my notebook either.  The
light on the device turns on, flashes twice, turns off and the monitor won't
do anything so even the fb as a start would be good.
I think the fb comes installed with precompiled with SheevaPlug Installer.
I have major troubles reinstalling the fb drivers because they won't compile
for this or that reason.  If it comes down to it, I'll work more on that and
try go get those issues resolved, but to have to recompile this kernel
without the config for it would be rough.  Still, I think we're okay with
the installation because others have said it works right after you install
the SheevaPlug Installer with other DisplayLink devices and the dmesg seems
to know about the device and the udlfb is sending out messages.  My dmesg
shows that the device is ready.
Any ideas on this one?  This would make it so my SheevaPlug could run HDMI;
an application for the SheevaPlug that is extremely killer.
Here's my relevant dmesg stuff:
