Creative Webcap endpoint ep800 chip help
 

Hello.
Has anyone got to make this webcam work with gnomemeeting, or some other software?

I got the alpha drivers from a link from www.linux-usb.org, as a diff file.
hand-edited it so that I could compile it with the kernel 2.4.22, which had added some more entries for webcam, so I added "#define VID_HARDWARE_EPCAM 36" to the header.
gnomemeeting detects teh webcam. Even everything looks right from dmesg, but gnomemeeting says its driver (epcam's) doesnt support YUV (browsing a bit the source code, I guess it supports rgb24) but changing gnomemeeting's gconf entries to tell it to use rgb24 still doesnt succeed.

Anyone has got this webcam to work with gnomemeeting?
Or should I better go out for another one, in which case which would you recommend?

(I am a bit of a programmer, but I have little knowledge of kernel internals and image processing)

Still having the same cam?
 

I'm using that web-cam, well, using is not really true, i'm trying it but i still get no image.
Have you made it work? i'm going crazy :P

Thanks.

PD: sorry for my "spanish" english ;)
