Most non-Video parts work fine, other than 4-bit ECC on the NAND.
(Audio has some dropout issues; it should buffer in SRAM not DRAM.)
I have no idea about the video parts.

LSP 2.00 beta includes a 1.2.0 u-boot version.

I have some patches that get the 2009.03-git versions of U-Boot
behaving with the DM355 EVM.  Several of them have been submitted
for merge with u-boot, but most of that merging seems like it will
happen after 2009.05 goes out.  (Or maybe not; I can't make sense
of what the merge plans are.)

There's a dm9000 fix for reading bytes of the Ethernet address,
but other than that boot over Ethernet works ... and that's it.
I've not tried the USB support; nobody's provided MMC support for
DaVinci yet; and I'm working (slowly) on the NAND support.
