FYI as of 2015-12 the https://github.com/patjak/bcwc_pcie/ driver is now
working enough to see video. It requires a kernel newer than what 14.04
ships with by default. I've successfully tested it with the linux-image-
generic-lts-vivid (3.19 kernel). It also still requires you to manually

If you have some friends at broadcom that are willing to provide us with
the specs we can help in developing reverse engineering the driver...

Sadly I don't.. Is there a chance broadcom would just provide the specs
for the good cause? Or am I too naive? Ie having someone willing to do
the hard stuff implementing the drivers would benefit them (I think?)

Hi Guys,
I just bought a macbook pro retina and was planning to install Ubuntu in dual
boot configuration and saw this thread.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 natively on my Macbookpro11,1 Late 2013 and I

There is no driver for the Broadcom 1570 webcam so we need to write one.
I've been working on this for a while but it's a lot of work. The Webcam

with some firmware and then figure out how to talk to it. I'm currently
fiddling
Very cool, Patrik.
