Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I'd like to get a webcam set up on my FreeBSD webserver. Unfortunately, while shopping around I discovered that most of the current crop of cameras are USB based. I know the USB support has improved a lot in FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE, but I'm still not sure if any USB cameras are supported. Does anyone know if a USB camera can be gotten to work in 4.0-RELEASE? If so, what manufacturer/model should I buy? Unfortunately this machine has very little else in terms of free resources (both parallel ports and PCI slots are pretty much maxed out), otherwise I'd go buy a Color QuickCam or something.
