Hi Drew,

Been a long time! I have a CHIP computer and I am trying to get a webcam to work. But it seems to not have the supported drivers for my webcam loaded. Looks like i need gspca_zc3xx

I have a 041e:401f Creative Webcam Notebook PD1171

Thanks Dennis

Nice work Drew.

Hopefully the ongoing supply will continue, as it does look like a very useful board.

At some stage can you do current consumption tests please ...

Thanks

Mark

This looks like it could be an interesting computer, as long as they keep it from being just another raspberry pi.

Thanks for blogging on it.

Cheers,
