Hi Eddi, I'm working on this driver. I have one HVR900H. Unfortunately, I've been too busy those days, since I'm responsible for the entire subsystem maintainership and I have a job that it is unrelated to V4L. So, I can work on it only on my spare time. The HVR uses a tm6010 chip. The commands for this is slicely different than the ones for tm6000. The driver has some support for it, but some adjustments are needed. The firmware file is for xc3028XL variant. The current tree is broken (the urb decoding code is causing some OOPS during IRQ, causing kernel panic). I'm debugging it. About i2c discover, don't trust on their results. The normal procedure for detecting i2c devices doesn't seem to work with tm6000.
