Hey, Ben, have you made any progress on this?  If it'd help, I could set 
up an E4000 with a FC-AL JBOD on it for you to have access to.

Yep, I've been given access to an e4500 with a T3 array. So far, I've only
been able to try the drivers that are currently available. I've gone back
to 2.2.4 where socal first appeared, and still can't get things working. I
can only get the socal driver to recognize the live port. Proc shows that
the device (this T3) failed to respond, usually with a RJT.

Haven't gotten beyond that yet. I'm in the middle of buying a new house,
so I wont have time to work on this for another week or two. I do intend
to get it working though.

If anyone has information they want to dump on me about their experience
in this driver and trying to get this working, please do so. I'm going
into it blind, without any docs, and no reference point for a working
system.

Unfortunately, you are currently out of luck.  The SBUS
fc drivers are in a very poor state and don't work for
most people.

Ben Collins is trying to get the SOC/SOCAL driver working
with his array on his E4500.  He'll certainly post results
if he makes any progress.
