Hi. I am running FreeBSD 6.1, and am attempting to get a webcam up and running. I installed the pwcbsd driver and placed pwc_load="YES" in loader.conf. Upon boot, the camera is recognized and dmesg tells me pwc0: Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000 USB webcam pwc0: This camera is equipped with a Sony CCD sensor + TDA8787 (32) So far so good. Now I am at a loss, and am looking for advice. I can't seem to find any software that captures images that works. I have looked at camserv, motion, spcaview, cqcam, phpsview, but none of them seem to want to cooperate (note - these use the ugen device and I tried them w/o the pwc driver). So, is anyone aware of software for still & motion image capture that indeed works with the bwc driver? Many thanks for any/all suggestions. -- Jeff -- Professor J. S.
