Hey all, I'm having an AWFUL time getting my new ZoomCam USB to work... CPiA
seems to recognize the camera fine:

uhci.c: root-hub INT complete: port1: 495 port2: 48a data: 4
usb.c: USB disconnect on device 4
uhci.c: root-hub INT complete: port1: 495 port2: 488 data: 4
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/1/4, assigned device number 15
USB CPiA camera found
  CPiA Version: 1.30 (2.10)
  CPiA PnP-ID: 0553:0002:0100
  VP-Version: 1.0 0141


But, xawtv seems to hang on the video device (video1, because I also have a
bttv card in the machine):

jburley@chiba% xawtv -c /dev/video1                                           
This is xawtv-3.21, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.0)

For what it's worth, I can cat /proc/cpia/video1 (lots of info there), as well
as /prov/video/dev/video1 ...


I'm running the 2.4.0 kernel... perhaps there's something I haven't compiled
in? No on anywhere has been able to help... argh!

Thanks,
josh
