Well, what to you mean by working ;). I looked through the E3 config for the 2.4 kernel and found
that it had enabled support for the the aic23 stero codec and after a bit of light hacking I got
it to complie under 2.6. The aic23 I2C driver probes for the device and will only try to attach to
if it got an ack back from a chip so either the I2C bus is in a state which means it always thinks
it has an ack, there is another I2C chip at the same address, or there are 2 aic23 stero codecs on
the E3. As I haven't taken mine apart I don't know which it is.
I have DMA interrupts & I2C interrupts, but no sound as yet.

Ah, your blurred picture got me so excited I didn't read your website correctly!
Any hint on how you got the LCD to work? (my FB code seems to match the FB code in your patch), or
am I going to have to wait until the weekend!
What else is there to do? Just to confirm, the current status is:
Kernel booting
Serial port working
USB working
NAND reading & writing
FB working
Which leaves:
sound ?!
Mini keyboard (PS2 right?)
u-boot NAND read (& write ?)
Getting PBL tool to load & run u-boot from flash
DSP!!
