Probably it will use v2.7 firmware or v3.6 (if it has a xc3028L). Those firmwares
are available via Documentation/video4linux/extract_xc3028.pl script. The instructions
for use it are commented on the top of the script file.

The driver is at the staging directory at the mercurial tree. It compiles fine, but
it generates some OOPSes when you try to use it. It may be related to the i2c
conversion or to the buffer filling routines.

Feel free to contribute. While I want to finish the driver, due to some higher
priority tasks on my large TODO list, it is unlikely that I'll have some time
for doing it soon, unfortunately.



Cheers,
Mauro
