Lots of frontends use the xc5005. stoth/hvr950q uses the au8522 and the 
xc5000. The cx23885 tree has concrete examples of the s5h1409 using the 
xc5000 (hvr1500q).

Hmm. I haven't really used the dibcom src but I think this is already 
supported.

I have a driver for this, I hope to release it shortly.

I did a driver for this, it's already in the kernel.

No, see my comment above.

Why not get involved and scratch your own itch? :)

The community could use more developers, why not roll up your sleeves 
and help solve your problem - and the problem for others? Everyone has 
to start somewhere and usually when would-be developers ask questions - 
everyone is willing to help.

Regards,

Steve
