And other news on the V4L1 front:

I'm waiting for test results on the cpia2 driver. If it works, then the V4L1
support can be removed from that driver as well.

FYI, that will break this 2005 vintage piece of V4L1 software people may
still be using for the QX5 microscope:

Sorry, that is of course, if there is no V4L1 compat layer still in
place.

BTW, qx5view uses a private ioctl() to change the lights on a QX5 and
not the V4L2 control.

The better would be to port qx5view to use libv4l and implement the new
illuminator ctrl on the driver and on the userspase app. Do you have
hardware for testing this?

No.  I did check Amazon.com and eBay and saw a QX5 for about US$75 after
shipping costs:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380262406989&rvr_id=139147359954&crlp=1_263602_263622&UA=L*F%3F&GUID=0b3b537412b0a0e203e63006ff9becb0&itemid=380262406989&ff4=263602_263622

I'm not sure if I want to buy one at that price, since I already have a
QX3.

Andy

Hello Andy, Mauro

I own a USB Microscope which looks quite the same as the one in your link, but I don't know if it is similar to the QX3 or QX5.
It is called "Traveler USB-Mikroskop" and model number is "SU 1071".
One of this two:
http://www.traveler-service.de/cms/index.php?id=traveler-optische-geraete-de

USB ID: 1871:01b0 Aveo Technology Corp.

It is not working in Ubuntu 10.04, kernel AMD64 2.6.32-24-generic.

If it is a QX5, I can help testing.

Regards,
Thomas
