I don't think anyone wanted to maintain it, and the usermode quickcam stuff seemed to do everything that the kernel quickcam stuff did without also crashing the system when you plugged a QuickCam VC (the new color model) in. > Many other things only have niche users, but are still here (things being > drivers). I've already gotten the qcam driver to work perfectly on a 3.0 > system, so I could easily post all the code to remerge in. Failing that-as Does that include the VC? As I said before, having the system crash because a novice user has plugged in a different model is not a recipe for success when it comes to tech support, and if you're willing to solve that problem as well (and no, I don't have a VC for you - I gave that to the last guy who promised to fix this and have heard nothing back since :) then I certainly have no objection to seeing it come back. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
