Well, not entirely correct. The footnote at the bottom of the home page
says:
* NOTE: This is an independent project, and is not formally associated
with Debian. We plan on working closely with Debian, with the goal of
our work eventually being integrated into the mainstream.
So it is not Debian that is doing this.

I think either the driver would have to be ported to 2.4 or CML2+OS
backported to 2.2. Or at least it is my (perhaps mistaken) impression
that CML2+OS is Linux 2.4 specific. If you want to know for certain,
you should write in the appropriate forum, which is the emdebian-discuss
mailing list:
