Hi,

I was trying this driver with:

my webcam:
ugen7.2: <Lenovo EasyCamera vendor 0x046d> at usbus7, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH
(480Mbps) pwr=ON

my system:
FreeBSD starkiller 8.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Tue Jan  5
21:11:58 UTC 2010
root at amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
amd64

When turn on the webcam:

Jan 10 16:13:25 starkiller root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x046d product
0x09b6 bus uhub7
Jan 10 16:13:25 starkiller kernel: ugen7.2: <vendor 0x046d> at usbus7

when execute ./webcamd -d ugen7.2 -i 0 -v 0
Jan 10 16:13:29 starkiller root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x046d product
0x09b6 bus uhub7

Issues:

To access /dev/video0 with a no-root user in operator group, I changed
permisions: chmod 0660 /dev/video0 manually

I can access using pwcview but I cant access from cheese, Do I something to
get this?


Thanks for this software, good work!!!
