This port builds a kernel module with the 'ov511' USB webcam driver
using the adaptation layer in devel/linux-kmod-compat
The sources are taken from the Linux kernel 2.6.x
New port linux-ov511-kmod, a usb webcam driver based on the linux driver 'ov511' (from the linux sources) built on FreeBSD using devel/linux-kmod-compat. The driver supports some ov511 based webcams. THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL CODE, TRY IT AT YOUR OWN RISK. This is only for 6.x/7.x and at the moment only for i386. Most bugs and limitations are due to linux-kmod-compat rather than this port itself, so upgrading linux-kmod-compat (and rebuilding this port) will most likely improve functionality and remove some bugs. As usual if some of the port gurus wants to help fixing any mistakes that i may have made in the port (or missing things, e.g. a suitable warning message when the port is installed), i will be very grateful (and can spend more time working on the emulation code). In particular, i could not find a good site (ftp or web) to fetch individual linux source files from, so i copied them on my web server and used it as MASTER_SITE. This should be fixed though. 2007-02-02 19:25:27 +01:00			`This port builds a kernel module with the 'ov511' USB webcam driver`
