Well, after this patch there's one more device that works with an
open-source driver, which I consider a good thing. What about
open-sourcing support for the other devices you're talking about?

Thanks, but I'd rather stick with the device I have than spending more
money to have a device that only works with a closed-source driver.

Anyway, I just saw that the patch doesn't apply cleanly against
linux-media master. I'll submit a new version of the patch in a
minute.

Cheers
Thomas
