The DSP chip is not IBM's. They wrote the driver for it (MWave) under NDA
with whomever it belongs to. They've released the driver source, but can't
release the DSP code itself.
Or something like that. Jeff was explaining this to me yesterday, but he's
out of the office today, so he won't be able to expound upon this anytime
soon :)
