No I did not, I tried to look through all of this and tried to understand it
the best that I could, keep in mind I am a very experienced computer user,
and I know a lot about operating systems, programming languages ect, but for
some reason the attempts i was making weren't getting me any further,
I did take some codec, and tried to edit the qc-driver.c file but when i did
that it said that it couldnt compile the file because of a "memory" varible
that they had defined, that was undefined or something like that i cant
really remember at the moment..
if you could write a kind of basic, or even a little indepth how to, and
post it on my "ubuntu 8.10 interpid forum post" about the webcam not working
if everything goes smooth i would love to post it as Solved and then
everyone could enjoy it.. I have tried several things, and think it is very
interesting how cat'ing /dev/video shows all the data its seeing.. pretty
interesting just not video garbled txt, here is the forum i hope you have
time to go a little into explaining the steps involved and hopefully i
wouldnt have too many questions, its just the launchpad postings were sort
of scattard and went through several different kernel builds
