Not true (I am still on 10.3). This webcam is an uvc device. All you need to do is to load the snd_usb_audio module. The whole process of getting the whole webcam working is to put this line: ,---- | install uvcvideo /sbin/modprobe snd_usb_audio; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install uvcvideo `---- in /etc/modprobe.conf.local I also have a script with these lines: ,---- | #!/bin/sh | modprobe -r uvcvideo | modprobe -r snd_usb_audio `---- to reset the webcam if something goes wrong.
