This is not available anymore. Can you please attach the latest repo tarball to
this ticket?

I have two still widely used US-made POS machines with this Geode LX chip.
At least one of them actually makes use of the multiplexed DDC/UART2 gpio line
for the serial connected touchscreen. Can we have a way to use both DDC control
and UART2? E.g. switching to DDC only momentarily while initializing the Geode
video and allow the UART2 most of the time?
