Hi everybody, it's been a long time since the last SVN commit announcement. Most recent commits were too small improvements to be officially announced on the list. Today's commit is different: the Linux UVC driver now supports the built-in iSight cameras.
iSight support in the driver doesn't include firmware loading. You will need the ift-extract and ift-load userspace tools to extract the firmware from the MacOS X driver (we can't redistribute it for obvious legal reasons) and to load the firmware to the device. Those tools can be found at http://bersace03.free.fr/ift/ Thanks to Étienne Bersac for working on iSight support and getting the patch and userspace tools in shape. Thanks also to Ronald Bultje and Ivan Zlatev for reverse-engineering the iSight proprietary video transmission protocol and working on the first versions of the patch. Have fun.
