Re: Logitech Quickcam Express USB
Google was my first choice... i try to find something but i lost my time i expect that FreeBSD team do something about this I think that its a bad idea try to find the solution with Linux reverse engineering Thanks anyway Paul On Wed, 2004-02-18 at 01:44, Paul A.

Last time I checked (over 12 months ago, admittedly) the short answer was no. There were some Linux reverse engineering attempts (the interface is not public), and reports scattered about the web regarding limited success with these drivers under NetBSD and FreeBSD, but I personally never got anything working.

There's not much anyone can do about that. I suspect the difficulty you'll have in getting the 'FreeBSD team [to] do something about this' is that it's just not a very interesting problem---there are other cameras around with open specifications. Certainly I gave up on the QuickCam in pretty short order and just got another camera. -- Paul. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
