I am now having my quickcam being probed by my kernel:

qcam0 at 0x378 on isa
qcam0: unidirectional parallel port

qcamcontrol says
open: No such file or directory

because the file /dev/qcam0 does not exist, and is not possible to create
because it's not an option in MAKEDEV.

It's on my LPT1, first lpt port, and when I specify it, it says device
busy:


cocoa# qcamcontrol -p /dev/lpt0
open: Device busy
cocoa# 

Any ideas, or am I like doing this totally wrong?
:-)

Daniel
