I did few portings to make the driver workable with vanilla 2.6.34 and later. Beside's Devin's xc4000.[ch], I also use the files (xc4000.[ch] and firmware) from Istvan page. It works very well and the dongle feels much cooler when idling. because the PCTV 340e's power management is working. Since there are several devices using xc4000 driver; I really hope that it can included in main v4l stream; at least in the staging directory. Also really like to see analog support (S-video capture, analog TV and FM radio) for PCTV 340e too :). I was told that the dib0700 driver does not has the analog tuning yet. Thank you
