Hi,

That's not a problem, and it's being worked on [1].

That's not a problem either, there's just a bit that you don't need to
set in the control 1 register, and that's pretty much it. It doesn't
justify a whole new driver.

It's listed as the input, but all the rest of the documentation refers
only to 24MHz, which seems to indicate that it's only running on the
oscillator, which would make much more sense.

Thanks,
Maxime
