Oh hey! Speaking of cameras, I'm working on a Gentoo image for LinuxCNC, it's
like 90% of the way there, I have an installer and everything, just need to
test it on CNC hardware.. Are the cameras you guys use for camview fall under
UVC (USB_VIDEO_CLASS / uvcvideo) or something else? Trying to avoid 500+ kernel
modules lol.
let me see if I can find what dmesg says about this one. brb.

Is that helpful. I'm under the impression its a qtvcp problem. that is
what pukes all over itself when LinuxCNC is launched. One thing it
definitely doesn't do is export the video over an ssh -Y connection, I
have to goto the computer running the machine to see it when it does
work, which it hasn't since last summer 2 or 3 days after I posted my
success msg.
My theory is that Murphy saw the message, and broke it again as soon as
he could. He seems to have taken up residence here, even drinking my
last beer once in a while...
Thanks!

I'm as tired of that as you all are reading about my camera woes.
It never works long enough for me to get the align kit from our wiki
fully calibrated. Yet it works with cheese on any machine I plug it into.
Thank you.
Take care, stay warm & well Dewey.
