In particular, the SAA7116 used in the meteor card is documented at http://server1.pa.hodes.com/ps/acrobat/2044.pdf I believe it is a good idea to include the pointer in the sources of the meteor driver. A similar things should, in my opinion, be applied wherever possible for all pieces of code which deal with specific hardware. I haven't been able to find references for the 7191/7196, as the search utilities supplied by philips are mostly useless.
