Hi all,
I've managed to get my stuff running on 2.5 (pfew ... :-)
The first experiments show that the camera does *not* die
when doing a "cat /dev/hda > /dev/null" on 2.5. Interesting !
I tried a couple of hundred MB's and the camera still worked.
(this would kill the webcam immediately on 2.4).
I'll do more testing next week.
greetings,
Rob van Nieuwkerk

(memory refresh:
This thread is about the "dying camera problem" which occurs
on 2.4 kernels using OHCI and a Philips webcam while doing
any trivial amount of IO on CompactFlash in PIO mode.)
