Thank you for trying the patch.  The patch is just a quick and simple
patch, to make xc4000 works with linux 2.6.35, and I only just want to
make sure the DVB feature is up and running. I remembered that Devin
had said something about RC polling, which make the 'load' getting
high (1.00) eventhough the system proccesses are in idle or sleeping. 

In my case, the PCTV 340e dongle is cooler when it is in idle; ie, not
streaming to the host; compared to the original xc4000 driver.

One more thing is, the SNR, signal strength, ... are quite not reported
correctly. if you use 'femon -H'.

I really hope other experienced developers can take a look into the
code, and make it better compability with current kernel. :)


Thank you very much.
