FreeBSD and an iSight

[Nik Clayton]

Has anyone had any luck getting an iSight to work with FreeBSD?  I've
just plugged one in, and it's recognised by the firewire drivers, which
is a start:

kernel: fwohci0: BUS reset
kernel: fwohci0: node_id=0xc800ffc2, gen=9, CYCLEMASTER mode
kernel: firewire0: 3 nodes, maxhop <= 2, cable IRM = 2 (me)
kernel: firewire0: bus manager 2 (me)
kernel: firewire0: New S400 device ID:000a27000407dc05
kernel: sbp0:0:0 No additional information to report

but 'fwcontrol -R', with and without 'sysctl hw.firewire.try_bmr=0'
doesn't capture anything.

Some poking around the Linux space has turned up:

    http://www.tele.ucl.ac.be/PEOPLE/DOUXCHAMPS/ieee1394/coriander/

which in turn depends on

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdc1394/
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/libraw1394

and the video4linux interface, but nothing equivalent for FreeBSD.
