cia a tutti,
ho una bellissima webcam trovata nella patatine che mi piacerebbe fare
funzionare sotto linux.
Si tratta di una Cpia webcam che riesco a fare funzionare persino con
osx e driver opensource.
sotto linux invece in dmesg trovo questo:
=======================================================
inux video capture interface: v1.00
V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.2.3
Since in-kernel colorspace conversion is not allowed, it is disabled by
default now. Users should fix the applications in case they don't work
without conversion reenabled by setting the 'colorspace_conv' module
parameter to 1<6>USB driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.2.3
USB CPiA camera found
videodev: "CPiA Camera" has no release callback. Please fix your driver
for proper sysfs support, see http://lwn.net/Articles/36850/
CPiA Version: 1.33 (2.10)
CPiA PnP-ID: 0553:0002:0106
VP-Version: 1.0 0100
usbcore: registered new driver cpia
=======================================================
ho letto l'articolo indicato nel log, ma non ci ho capito un granchè su
come risolvere il mio problema
indi ho cercato in google ed ho trovato questa patch
http://www.thisishull.net/showthread.php?t=27137
ma come la applico 'sta patch?? Tutte le volte mi da:
debian:/usr/src/linux# patch -p0 < cpia_diff
patching file ./drivers/media/video/cpia.c
patch: **** malformed patch at line 4: if (!cpia_proc_root || !cam)
allego la patch ne caso volgiate provare
ciao
