Greetings. I'm new to this list, and am now on it because of the message quoted below. Has anything been done with this, or am I the only (other) person with Linux and the X10 usb adapter for the VR31A camera receiver?

It looks to me like the originals used Nogatech chips, but the Linux Nogatech driver didn't work for me. lsusb gives me this: idVendor 0x0733 ViewQuest Technologies, Inc. idProduct 0x0430 Intel Pro Share WebCam bcdDevice 0.90 This definitely isn't the code from the original X10 devices. Of course the best way to find out what was inside was to take it apart. :) The Video-USB chip is a Sunplus SPCA506A1. The EEPROM has been reprogrammed with a custom vendor ID, and Product. I haven't been able to track down any Linux support for this chip yet. Has anyone else had better luck? The best I have is the users manual for it: http://www.sunplus.com.tw/products/pdf/media/spca/datasheet/ca506a1v10.pdf I was thinking of taking a crack at writing a driver for this, but have never written such a beast for usb devices. Any pointers on the best way to tackle this? TIA, Patrick ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Influence the future of Java(TM) technology.
