Hi All!

I've got some problems getting the webcam working...
This is the output of dmesg [running 2.4.0-test4]:

0x378: FIFO is 16 bytes
0x378: writeIntrThreshold is 8
0x378: readIntrThreshold is 8
0x378: PWord is 8 bits
0x378: Interrupts are ISA-Pulses
0x378: ECP port cfgA=0x10 cfgB=0x4b
0x378: ECP settings irq=7 dma=3

parport0: cpp_daisy: aa5500ff(10)

parport0: Multimedia device, VLSI Vision Ltd DUAL Camera
Linux video capture interface: v1.00
V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.1.0
Parallel port driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.1.0

It detects the webcam, but not a single app. seems to work [they say
that
I've no /dev/video0 etc. while they are certainly there]

I've no problems using the webcam under windows :(

Can anyone give me a hint?

Thanx in advance,
   Marc
