I think something you could do that would be pretty self contained would be to port the driver to use the usbvideo module. I've been wanting to do this myself, but I haven't found the time. Only issues I see would be understanding how to interact with the devices, which is hard when there is little to no documentation. I would suggest working in a branch and getting it to work with just one device that you can test with. Here's a quote from an earlier mail I sent on the subject, on September 18 if you want to find the thread in the archives: On Sep 18, 2007 6:34 PM, David Sharp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > actually, I'd like to rewrite the driver to use usbvideo > (drivers/media/video/usbvideo), which implements the entire v4l2 > access layer, leaving our driver to implement just the hardware > access.
