[Voyage-linux] R6040 Support in Voyage 6.1

Hi Punky,

Thanks for the hard work. It is a shame that DMP is selling something that
seems to me to be broken and is not even willing to support those like you
who are providing free support to their customers. Voyage Linux is one of
the rare Linux distros that actually supports this seemingly broken piece of
hardware with the most recent kernel.

The really appalling and outrageous thing is that they even dare to
recommend Voyage Linux to their customers. Am i the only one upset by this?
What do other DMP customers in this list think?

Max.
