Webcam in extensions?

Yes, I think it's okey to make it. But don't know if kernel supports that device interface. (V4L) But I guess they provide support for that.

I mean if linux configuration allows that. You needed to include support for V4L or V4L2 interfaces to use those modules. If it's not, we needed to use new kernel.

When I connect my logitech webcam, I get this output:

usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using ohci-sdp and address 2
usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
not supported device connected Manufacturer: <NULL> Product : <NULL>

pretty nice...

cheers

It's perfectly normal for me. You needed to compile your linux drivers and install to TV before connecting your Web Cam.

# CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV is not set
new kernel - hard to realize :/
