Hi, I'm currently restructuring webcamd to be more up to date with the following git: http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git I've created a new tool (~1000 LOC) called linux_make, which I've committed to my I4B svn repositorium under the usbcam/ulinux/tools/linux_make folder. This tool basically scans the Linux Makefiles and convert them into BSD ones based on input from a "config" file. This is very much like menuconfig, only more lightweight. For example I don't care about automatic dependencies. Currently everything is built like a monotolith, but this new tool allows for modules aswell, so that for example the UVC video driver is a .so file which webcamd loads during startup. When I've got all the bits and pieces together I will do the final switchover to using media_tree.git. This might require some help from people that have submitted driver patches to webcamd which might no longer apply. --HPS Reference: svn --username anonsvn --password anonsvn \ checkout svn://svn.turbocat.net/i4b/trunk/usbcam/ulinux
