Hi Torfinn,

Thx for the information and the patch. I've fetched the port from
the given URL and had to edit the shell archive, because the
browser (lynx) removed the TABs in the Makefile and inserted blanks.
I only say this to tell you that perhaps the port should be placed
some where as a tar file.

The page http://raaf.atspace.org/ says that actual version is
pwcbsd-1.2.tar.gz while the port fetches some older version (1.0).

My cam (LogiTech vendor 0x046d device 0x08f0) is not supported:

# usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), Intel(0x0000)
, rev 1.00
 port 1 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, Camera(0x08f0), vendor 0x046
d(0x046d), rev 1.00
 port 2 powered
	...

Any chance in the future or should I buy some other item?

Thx again

	matthias
