Hi,
Please tag libv4l-0.6.2-1.fc12 for F12 inclusion
This release contains a few small (innocent) fixes, but the reason I would
like to see in
F-12 is to make the livecd do the right thing wrt webcams on Asus laptops
out of the box.
Asus has this nasty habbit of installing webcam modules upside down inside
the frame of their
laptops. Since the same modules (with the same usb id's) get used not
upside down by other manufacturers, libv4l has a table with the DMI
strings of known to have upside down cam
laptops (Mostly Asus, and some Lenovo).
The big change in this small bugfix release is recognizing 17 more models
as having
their laptop upside down, so including this in F-12 will make the livecd
handle the
cam right on these 17 different laptop models.
