still valid. The supported boards even reflect the current
driver's state. Yet, some things changed, so let's keep
this document updated.

This brings support under Linux for the Aiptek PocketDV 3300 in webcam

You can get these values by looking at /var/log/messages when you plug
your camera, or by typing : cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices.
If you manage to use your cam with this code, you can send me a mail
(royale@zerezo.com) with the name of your cam and a patch if needed.
This is a beta release of the driver. Since version 0.70, this driver is
only compatible with V4L2 API and 2.6.x kernels. If you need V4L1 or

maintained anymore. Good luck!
