Hi, did you see the existing xc3028 driver on mcentral.de? http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/v4l-dvb-experimental/ xc3028-tuner.c (it's implemented in the em28xx, saa7134 and cx88 there) That driver supports xc3028, xc2028, xc3018 chips, you might have some issues with the firmwares, best would be to try existing packages. What kind of device is that? PCI/Conexant, or something else? Markus On 4/23/07, John Newbigin <jnewbigin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Here I go replying to myself again. I have had some success with loading the firmware. I has a suspicion that I needed to twiddle the GPIO pins but could not get it to work. Studying the xc3028 driver showed me the way. The GPIO needs to be first cleared and then set before continuing. The xc3028 is very similar to the xc2028 and they could use a common driver. I don't understand how the firmware file is stored for the xc3028 though. I assume that multiple chunks are encoded into one file somehow. There is also another firmware chunk which is needed for FM radio support so I don't know how that would be added. Anyway, I have loading firmware but still no TV. I think I am close though. i2c traces and firmware can be downloaded from here http://www.chrysocome.net/downloads/t750-logs-0.1.tar.gz I'll try and clean up my code and post a patch tomorrow. John.
