Need VIDEO_OV5648

Post#1 by brutus » 20 May 2022, 10:09

Hello,

I need VIDEO_OV5648 for webcam support to scan qr codes. It was included in kernel 5.12 according this post: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195877

I use Porteus Kiosk 5.4.0 which runs on kernel 5.15 but this driver is not included. How do I get the driver into the system?

BR

Michael,

Custom build is the only option when kernel recompilation is required.
Please contact with builds@porteus-kiosk.org if you are interested.

Thanks
