..
It's a Hauppauge remote port, just like the one on the (supported) PVR-250.
And I don't want the LIRC monstrosity when there's a perfectly good
kernel driver to run it directly. The patch does not prevent others
from using LIRC.

"Hijack", not "HIJAAK". :)
Resending to copy linux-kernel again.

thanks.

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.

Hans

..
Thanks. I'll just watch for it arriving upstream in 2.6.31 (?) then,
if the current ir-kbd-i2c patch doesn't end up in 2.6.30 already.
Good idea on the cleanup in there, too. It was looking a bit tattered
around the edges, and my patch doesn't really help much with that aspect. :)
Cheers
