Matteo-

Have you made any progress with this?  I've looked at the cinergyT2 
code, and it doesn't look like the fix is going to be as simple as what 
was done with the v4l cards.  Here is how we got this done for 
saa7134-based boards:

  	/* all done */


If you get something working, please send in a patch to the list.

Good Luck.
