[-- Attachment #1 --] I recently retired a Dell M4400 laptop (that served well for about 7 years); its replacement is a Dell M4800... which came with a built-in webcam: g1-254(10.1-S)[80] usbconfig -d 1.3 dump_device_desc ugen1.3: <LaptopIntegratedWebcamHD CN0767N972487515BSJWA01> at usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (500mA) bLength = 0x0012 bDescriptorType = 0x0001 bcdUSB = 0x0200 bDeviceClass = 0x00ef <Miscellaneous device> bDeviceSubClass = 0x0002 bDeviceProtocol = 0x0001 bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040 idVendor = 0x0c45 idProduct = 0x64d0 bcdDevice = 0x4214 iManufacturer = 0x0002 <CN0767N972487515BSJWA01> iProduct = 0x0001 <Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_HD> iSerialNumber = 0x0000 <no string> bNumConfigurations = 0x0001 g1-254(10.1-S)[81] I have installed: g1-254(10.1-S)[81] pkg info webcam\* cuse4bsd\* v4\* pwcview\* webcamd-3.18.0.1 cuse4bsd-kmod-0.1.36 v4l_compat-1.0.20120501_1 pwcview-1.4.1_6 g1-254(10.1-S)[82] This is running on: g1-254(10.1-S)[82] uname -a FreeBSD g1-254.catwhisker.org 10.1-STABLE FreeBSD 10.1-STABLE #29 r281195M/281199:1001512: Tue Apr 7 04:25:29 PDT 2015 root@g1-254.catwhisker.org:/common/S1/obj/usr/src/sys/CANARY i386 g1-254(10.1-S)[83] I have loaded the cuse4bsd kernel module: g1-254(10.1-S)[83] kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 31 0xc0400000 12b8ac8 kernel 2 3 0xc16b9000 74060 linux.ko 3 1 0xc172e000 32a0 coretemp.ko 4 1 0xc1732000 54e54 iwn5000fw.ko 5 1 0xc1787000 7ba5dc nvidia.ko 6 1 0xd04b8000 a000 tmpfs.ko 7 1 0xd1a30000 4000 fdescfs.ko 8 1 0xd1a3b000 8000 linprocfs.ko 9 1 0xd1acf000 c000 if_lagg.ko 10 1 0xd28d1000 2000 rtc.ko 11 1 0xd1fd6000 7000 cuse4bsd.ko g1-254(10.1-S)[84] devd is running: g1-254(10.1-S)[84] service devd status devd is running as pid 36061. g1-254(10.1-S)[85] An attempt to just fire up webcamd doesn't actually seem to be useful: g1-254(10.1-S)[86] service webcamd status webcamd is not running. g1-254(10.1-S)[87] service webcamd forcestart Starting webcamd. g1-254(10.1-S)[88] echo $? 0 g1-254(10.1-S)[89] service webcamd status webcamd is not running. g1-254(10.1-S)[90] Getting webcamd to work isn't the most critical thing in the world, but it would be kinda nice. Any hints or clues for doing this? Thanks! Peace, david -- David H. Wolfskill david@catwhisker.org Those who murder in the name of God or prophet are blasphemous cowards.
