Hi,
I'm running into the following problem:
With SuSE 9.2 it was possible to download the kernel module ov511 (one
stable and one experimental version, 1.65 en 2.28 I think) and to
compile it in order to use some webcams. As far as I understood this
module is now maintained in the kernel tree. But with kernel 2.6.11 and
later it won't work any more. Some people at www.linux-usb.org wrote
that this module is not maintained any more. I've send some e-mails to
the official maintainers, but no respons.
Will opensuse have an optimized kernel without known bugs of the
standard kernel modules?
Is there a chance that someone of this community will supply / write a
patch?

I own a (USB) Phillips ToUCam, which needs support for compression (= a
cheap one), works great up to SuSE 9.2
Of coarse I can go to a shop and buy another webcam.....
