Well, it's not a problem with the code, but some device specifics. Don't 
rush on a chip like this.. will land you in a lot of frustration. I need 
to sort out a little bit more on it. I don't want you to jump into this 
straight away, since you will start cursing everybody. There is no doubt 
about it.

Rewrote the driver, i think one more time i think after that. maybe 
twice i think.
Well, i had to even follow with the guy who designed the chip, because 
of "no" documentation. Still there are sharp edges. needs to be fixed.
