What has to be done is a usb gadget driver on N800 side and it would make the usb port work as UVC (usb video class) device, so Windows, Mac and Linux (with linux-uvc module loaded) would work with it. I'm not sure N800 gadget drivers sources are available on maemo repository, and if it isn't only Nokia internal guys could do that (may be someone is writing such gadget)
Sounds like even a better and more simpler idea! thanks. But are you sure that a user-space apps can't implement a UVC device on the usb-port in Linux? IIRC, it's very much possible to write user-space device drivers that uses/needs USB port for I/O but don't take my word for it as it's been quite some time since i last i wrote any device drivers. Anyway, if it's possible then you wont need to write any kernel-space code, let alone need to look into the n800 v4l2 driver's source. -- Regards, Zeeshan Ali Design Engineer, SW Open Source Software Operations Nokia Multimedia _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
