I've been keeping the CryptoMark patch up to date in the 2.4 kernel tree
at:
	bk://linuxusb.bkbits.net/cryptomark-2.4
	
But yes, I agree with your decision to throw it all away and do it
yourself :)

At first glance at your code, nice job, it looks very good.  But it
doesn't build against a 2.6.0-test5 kernel :(
