I tried the ov511 modules who comes with the 2.4.26 kernel and loaded the modules ov511 and i2c-core. Without success, no interface was created because the sensor couldn't be found. I also tried the ov511-2.27 downloaded from Mark McClelland's http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/ page. When I load the module ov511 and i2c-core (ov511_core does not exist) after connecting the camara, syslog prints following messages: 01:38:35 kernel: usb.c: registered new driver ov511 01:38:35 kernel: ov511_core.c: USB OV518 video device found 01:38:35 kernel: ov511_core.c: Device revision 1 01:38:35 kernel: ov511_core.c: Compression required with OV518...enabling 01:38:35 kernel: i2c-core.o: adapter OV51x registered as adapter 0. 01:38:35 kernel: ov511_core.c: Device at usb-02:00.2-1.3 registered to minor 0 01:38:35 kernel: ov511_core.c: v2.27 : ov511 USB Camera Driver 01:43:48 kernel: ov511_core.c: snapshot check not supported yet on OV518(+) 01:43:48 kernel: ov511_core.c: snapshot check not supported yet on OV518(+) And after accessing /dev/video0 syslog print: 01:43:56 kernel: ov511_core.c: No sensor is detected yet 01:45:00 last message repeated 4 times cat /proc/video/ov511/0/info gives following: driver_version : v2.27 custom_id : 0 model : Generic Camera streaming : no grabbing : no can_decompress : yes compress : yes subcapture : no sub_size : 0 0 0 0 brightness : 71 colour : 201 contrast : 192 hue : 198 exposure : 0 num_frames : 2 frame : 0 depth : 0 size : 0 0 format : Unknown data_buffer : 0x00000000 frame : 1 depth : 0 size : 0 0 format : Unknown data_buffer : 0x00000000 snap_enabled : no bridge : OV518 sensor : Unknown packet_size : 0 framebuffer : 0x00000000 packet_numbering: 1 topology : usb-02:00.2-1.3 i2c_adap_id : 0 input : 0 All seems to be all right except the sensor. May the Philips ToUcam II changed the sensor? Any Ideas? Thank you, Michael ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: GNOME Foundation Hackers Unite!
