Raw Normal View History

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

Linux driver for SE401 based USB cameras
Copyright, 2001, Jeroen Vreeken
INTRODUCTION:
The SE401 chip is the used in low-cost usb webcams.
It is produced by Endpoints Inc. (www.endpoints.com).
It interfaces directly to a cmos image sensor and USB. The only other major
part in a se401 based camera is a dram chip.
The following cameras are known to work with this driver:
Aox se401 (non-branded) cameras
Philips PVCV665 USB VGA webcam 'Vesta Fun'
Kensington VideoCAM PC Camera Model 67014
Kensington VideoCAM PC Camera Model 67015
Kensington VideoCAM PC Camera Model 67016
Kensington VideoCAM PC Camera Model 67017
WHAT YOU NEED:
- USB support
- VIDEO4LINUX support
More information about USB support for linux can be found at:
http://www.linux-usb.org
MODULE OPTIONS:
When the driver is compiled as a module you can also use the 'flickerless'
option. With it exposure is limited to values that do not interfere with the
net frequency. Valid options for this option are 0, 50 and 60. (0=disable,
50=50hz, 60=60hz)
KNOWN PROBLEMS:
The driver works fine with the usb-ohci and uhci host controller drivers,
the default settings also work with usb-uhci. But sending more than one bulk
transfer at a time with usb-uhci doesn't work yet.
Users of usb-ohci and uhci can safely enlarge SE401_NUMSBUF in se401.h in
order to increase the throughput (and thus framerate).
HELP:
The latest info on this driver can be found at:
Documentation: update broken web addresses. Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.
