Erm, OK.  2.4.4 is pretty ancient, and I don't think many folk here
know about that or the Denx patches, or your hardware.  You should
probably ask Denx for support.

I suspect it was counting wrong, but you'd be better off asking someone
who wrote or maintains that driver.  (Denx?)  The count looked suspicious;
it reported 238 errors, and _also_ 238 NAKs.  NAKs are not errors, they're
just "try again later" responses.

Certainly 2.4.24 has better USB support.  It came out in January 2004,
so I'd hardly call it "new"!

If that's the most recent kernel available for your board, you should
certainly try it.  2.6.10 would be best, but may not be an option for you.
