Probably it will use v2.7 firmware or v3.6 (if it has a xc3028L). Those firmwares are available via Documentation/video4linux/extract_xc3028.pl script. The instructions for use it are commented on the top of the script file. The driver is at the staging directory at the mercurial tree. It compiles fine, but it generates some OOPSes when you try to use it. It may be related to the i2c conversion or to the buffer filling routines. Feel free to contribute. While I want to finish the driver, due to some higher priority tasks on my large TODO list, it is unlikely that I'll have some time for doing it soon, unfortunately.

For the record, this driver is currently *TOTALLY BROKEN*. Unless you are a developer who is prepared to reverse engineer the wire protocol and debug the driver, then you should not be wasting your time compiling the tree in the hope that it will work for you.
