I have a Logiteck QuickCam Chat webcam (USB-2) When I run usbdevs or usbdevs -v I get the following: [usbdevs] addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA addr 2: Camera, vendor 0x046d addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA [usbdevs -v] Controller /dev/usb0: addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00 port 1 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, Camera(0x092c), vendor 0x046d(0x046d), rev 0.00 port 2 powered Controller /dev/usb1: addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00 port 1 powered port 2 powered So, the device is detected alright. But I cannot get it to work. Kopeke (KDE) i.e. does not see the device. I have two questions: (a) do I need to load some kind of *.ko file (like for the soundcards) to use a webcam under freebsd-6R? (b) what program is useful in testing this (web) usb-camera? Hope to get some advice. -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.0 +++ The Power to Serve
