I Bought a Wacom Bamboo Fun Small Graphics Tablet a couple of days ago.
Wanting one for quite some time now, I decided to go and buy it on-line. And after 3 days, it came all the way from Germany :D.
I didnt even try running it on windows/mac before I plugged it into my ‘box running OpenSuse 11. First thing I notice: Its already working. Kindof. It’s got relative tracking and the pad/buttons dont work.
How i got it running and some pics, after the jump. (more…)
Working on the same principle as the last mjpg_stream implemenation, here it is: a portace plugin !

A advanced Biorhythm calculator i made for a school project some time ago. Works perfectly. But its really how you interpret it
( All a bunch of crap if you ask me XD )

After couple of hours, here is it: A libcaca extension to Mjpg-Stream[singlepic=141,300,200,,][singlepic=140,300,200,,]
You need img2txt from the libcaca-utilities and /dev/shm to be mounted and writable (or change to another location)
/dev/shm is present on most systems and is a mounted filesystem located on the main ram.
The source is in past the page brake.

The past few days i looked at ways could use my Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 USB Webcamera. Skype 2 did a nice job using all its features, including to my surprise, the integrated microphone.
Installing the driver/module was a piece of cake, goto http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ pickup the latest stable and do the usual compile&install, then load the module.
You may need to reboot at this point.
Now some testing was in order, pickup the luvcview viewer (you need libsdl-dev packages to compile). Make it, then you can run it just by ./luvcview ( if you have more video devices installed, you may need to set the according device it needs to read, see readme ) or install it with a quick ’sudo cp luvcview /usr/local/bin/’ for later reuse.
Ok, i got the cam running, i can see myself, and i can chat to people with Skype, what next ? (If it didnt work for you at this stage, the next steps wont help you.)
