Hi,
I just wanted to drop a quick note on how to get cheese to work.
Cheese only uses webcams that are registred by hal.
For now the m5602 driver is not registred correctly, thus an .fdi file
is needed. Attached with this mail is a .fdi for the m5602.
Save it into the /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/
This is the location for ubuntu, I don't know the location on other
distributions.
After restarting hal the webcam should be detected. You can verify this
by running "lshal | grep video" in a terminal. The output should contain
some video4linux.* strings.
The attached .fdi file is quite crudely implemented so it might pick up
other webcams too. You have been warned.
Regards,
Erik
