thanks a lot for following Eric's report.

I admit the case looks really strange and I have no better ideas at the
moment than to take the quirk into account, since i2c seems really to be
messed up on his card.

Did build a 2.6.30.1 one hour back and installed a recent v4l-dvb
mercurial on it and even have full support for my graphics card now.

No issues at all for what I can tell.

Cheers,
Hermann
