Hi,

can anyone who owns such a device confirm that the gspca_pac7302 driver (kernel 3.6.0-rc1+) is fine ?

Today I stumbled over a webcam which we do not support yet. The Windows driver of this device is called pac7302.sys, so I added it's USB-ID to the gspca-driver but couldn't get the device working.
When I started capturing, the LED turned on for about a second and then off again. No frames are received. There were no error messages.

I didn't have enough time for looking into this deeper today, but I think I could borrow this device again in a few days.

Regards,
Frank Schäfer

Ok, thank you for testing.
Then this device must be somehow different. :(
The driver seems to be "straight-forward", it basically writes static sequences to registers and doesn't check things like chip ids etc. So I guess it's time again for USB-sniffing...
