It's best to wait a bit. Jean Delvare is working on this ir-kbd-i2c driver
right now and when he's finished it should be much easier to add this. Most
importantly you can add this new i2c address to the cx18 driver rather than
add it to the probe_bttv list, which is rather overloaded anyway.
He should be finished within 1-3 weeks I guess. Probably sooner rather than
later. Just watch the linux-media list for it.
