There was some preliminary discussion with a Yamaha engineer about
providing specs/support for a dsp factory alsa driver, but they decided
against.  We were told that they only had docs in Japanese, and they
couldn't lend any support (too busy).

I also contacted a Creamware engineer about the Pulsar.  These guys are
Linux freindly, and they're working on porting the whole environment to
Linux (after the Windows and Mac versions, as usual).
