Maemo 5 with some modifications worked with some 4.x kernels (probably
4.6 or 4.7). I have not tested recent versions.

And Maemo 5 is usable userland, just still closed...

There is devuan jessie N900 image, I guess it is reasonable enough. Just

Front webcam... Few lines of code (or maybe only few lines of dts) and
perhaps quite a lot of debugging would be required there. OTOH... its
quality is not great, so...

BTW main camera only works in 1.3MPix mode. Getting 5MPix there would
be nice... 

> And what happened with ramp mode for camera autofocus?

We don't have userland application using those, so it was easier not
to merge them. It is few lines of code if you have application needing
these.

Best regards,
Pavel

Sebastian knows more. Driver is upstream and working for
N950. Unfortunately it does not really work on N900.

It's not currently in mainline. That mode is more or less useless for any
decent AF algorithm as it does not implement functionality typically needed
from lens drivers.

I guess you could implement support for it by using custom controls but I
don't think it's really good for anything.
