hey guys! i found nothing on my hardware on the v4l wiki or somewhere else on the internet, so i subscribed to this mailing list, hope you guys can help me... (and I hope this wasn't reported somewhere else, i don't want to waste your time!)
my hardware is named "hama video editor", a usb video grabber, it appears to my linux as this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 007: ID eb1a:2861 eMPIA Technology, Inc. eb1a:2861 is either a - generic EM2861 video grabber (which would be card=6) or - Yakumo MovieMixer (which would be card=43) the card=XX is meant to be the parameter of the em28xx module, which is obviously the correct driver for this hardware. I downloaded the v4l tree from mcentral.de, as opposed by the wiki, compiled it and installed it... * GCC: gcc-Version 4.1.3 20070831 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu1) * KERNEL: 2.6.22-11-generic (as you cann see I'm running Ubuntu, a feisty-gutsy mix of it) so, when I connect it, my output of dmesg looks like this: [ 2420.718480] em28xx v4l2 driver version 0.0.1 loaded [ 2420.718523] em28xx new video device (eb1a:2861): interface 0, class 255 [ 2420.718528] em28xx: device is attached to a USB 2.0 bus [ 2420.718531] em28xx: you're using the experimental/unstable tree from mcentral.de [ 2420.718534] em28xx: there's also a stable tree available but which is limited to [ 2420.718537] em28xx: linux <=2.6.19.2 [ 2420.718539] em28xx: it's fine to use this driver but keep in mind that it will move [ 2420.718542] em28xx: to http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/v4l-dvb-kernel as soon as it's [ 2420.718545] em28xx: proved to be stable [ 2420.718551] em28xx #0: Alternate settings: 8 [ 2420.718554] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 0, max size= 0 [ 2420.718557] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 1, max size= 0 [ 2420.718560] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 2, max size= 1448 [ 2420.718562] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 3, max size= 2048 [ 2420.718565] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 4, max size= 2304 [ 2420.718568] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 5, max size= 2580 [ 2420.718571] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 6, max size= 2892 [ 2420.718574] em28xx #0: Alternate setting 7, max size= 3072 [ 2420.805638] attach_inform: tvp5150 detected.

(if you need information, you'll get it...) (oh, and btw it seems that my webcam kernel driver module "gspca" is not compatible with that new v4l modules...) -- mfg, steff. -- der neue steff-point.
