[cpia] CU SeeMe Cam Kit Problems, & Cpia driver 0.7.4

[Pavan]

I have been attempting to get my CU-SeeMe CamKit Camera to work under
linux.  I compiled the modules successfully, and got the modules to load.
On one machine, the system loaded the drivers, but when I attempted to
grab pictures, it was garbled.  On the system I am currently trying it on,
the client programs insist the device does not exist.  The driver says 1
camera was found, but spits out all sorts of strange information that, at
this point, does not make sense to me.  I would appreciate it if someone
on this list could assist me.  I apologize if the contents of this message
were contained elsewhere in the mail archives.

In the initial computer setup, I have the parallel port set at ECCEPP1.9,
and I have tried ECCEPP1.7, and I have tried both ECP and EPP.  ECCEPP1.9
seems to be the only one that gives me any good results.

Also -- *** I compiled without the DMA option when compiling the modules
to avoid problems.  In either case, the setup is not working. *** 

This is what I get out of 'dmesg':

... As for the parport information:

[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ cat autoprobe
CLASS:MEDIA;

And...

[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ cat devices
 cpia_pp
[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ 

[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ cat hardware
base:   0x378
irq:    none

[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ 

[tumati@undergrad1 0]$ cat irq

Any and all help would be appreciated... Again, I apologize for repeat of
information already posted.
