Hi,
I have a logitech quickcam. Will I be able to use it in FreeBSD?
Can I use Windows driver?
Maybe you want to have a look at pwcbsd[1]. This is to use linux drivers on
A more recent project exists in the ports tree. If you're running
8.0-RELEASE or later, you might have a look at:
ports/multimedia/video4bsd-kmod
ports/multimedia/webcamd
Although, I don't know if your particular camera is supported.

Hi,
I kept this thread open while I tried some cameras myself and I can say
that all three cheapo web cams that I tried work.
I've now got
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Mar 24 11:51:43 GMT 2010 GENERIC i386
(note sources
were csupped a couple of weeks before)
video4bsd-kmod-0.1.3
libv4l-0.6.4
v4l_compat-1.0.20100113
webcamd-0.1.4
pwcview-1.4.1_2
loader.conf has
video4bsd_load="YES"
rc.conf
webcamd_enable="YES"
The webcam user needs write permissions on /dev/video0 - I still need to
set this up in devfs.rules.
Webcams I have are an ancient Logitech, some sort of Microsoft cam and
an ASDA Smart Value cam for £6 :)
I have a problem using any of the cameras with Skype which I will post
separately.
cheers
Chris
