Hi Michel: You may already be aware of this but spca5xx has now made it into Debian's testing repository. Kel and I are working to get the toolchain (spcaview etc) into Debian as well, that should happen fairly soon.
Some bad news though, we have received a bug report from a power PC user (Paul Brossier), it looks like the driver doesnt compile on powerpc. Do you have a co-maintainer versed on powerpc that can look into this for us by any chance? Also, we have set up a mail list for discussing debian packaging aspects of your driver. I dont expect it to be a high traffic site but if you are interested in joining the list point your browser here: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-spca5xx-devel The alioth site also has a forum but we (Kel and I) are planning to shut that down, we dont need a list server *and* a forum :-) Steve Paul Brossier([EMAIL PROTECTED])@2005-10-17 17:31: > Package: spca5xx-source > Version: 20051001-1 > Severity: normal > > Hi, > > thanks for packaging these modules. the module works fine on an i386 > box, but I have troubles compiling it on 2.6.12-1-powerpc64.
