That's always the problem with vendor-provided kernels, and that's why I always try to use a mainline kernel and get support for my boards upstreamed. It's not an easy task and often requires kernel development. You would basically need to port support for your board from 2.6.14 to a mainline kernel. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart _______________________________________________ Linux-uvc-devel mailing list Linux-uvc-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-uvc-devel
