Hello,
Sorry if this is not the appropiate list to discuss
this issue.
Santa Barbara SBIG CCD camera is one of the most
popular cameras used in astronomy. In order to
operate, the CCD requires a firmware to be uploaded
upon detection on the USB port. Otherwise, you can't
establish any further communications at all.
So we have a few hex files needed for firmware
uploaded to be placed under /lib/firmware and we have
have a rule file to be placed under /etc/udev/rules.d/
that uses fxload to upload the appropiate firmware.
We feel it's absolutely neccessary to have this CCD
supported. There are more technical details, but I'm
not sure whom to address when it comes to this task.
Cheers,
Jasem Mutlaq
