Please, can you help me!
This long I'm looking for a solution to put in the place the integrated camera of the pc that persists to be upside down!
I was able to find information that could be useful to developers but I do not know how to apply them with Remix OS!
Is anyone could help me please?
I found sources to patch the camera on a site of ubuntu.
http://ift.tt/2bIAXfL
I do not know which of these patches would likely work with my equipment
Is there someone who knows it in Linux or android who can give me information
Or is that the developer of Remix OS could do some things for me to solve this problem?
Thank you for your attention
cordially

Well, now the worst part has been done!!!
We just need to compile our modded file and to install the new driver, so from shell you have to go to the "Trunk" directory and type:
Code:
make
there shouldn't be errors!!
Then, ONLY if you are using one of the Ubuntu distributions (ubuntu, kubuntu, etc.), open with you editor the "Makefile" and change the following line:
Code:
INSTALL_MOD_DIR := usb/media
with
Code:
INSTALL_MOD_DIR := ubuntu/media/usbvideo
Now we just need to remove uvcvideo module (if you have previously installed it):
Code:
sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
Then:
Code:
sudo make install
sudo cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/media/usbvideo/
sudo cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/usb/media/
sudo depmod -ae
sudo modprobe -f uvcvideo
Now everything should work!!!
Let me know!!
And please try both solutions..
in case you don't see any difference just use the SECOND solution (mirrored or not, has you prefer), it should be the safest!!
Good luck,
enjoy your webcam!!

Well, now the worst part has been done!!!
We just need to compile our modded file and to install the new driver, so from shell you have to go to the "Trunk" directory and type:
Code:
make
there shouldn't be errors!!
Then, ONLY if you are using one of the Ubuntu distributions (ubuntu, kubuntu, etc.), open with you editor the "Makefile" and change the following line:
Code:
INSTALL_MOD_DIR := usb/media
with
Code:
INSTALL_MOD_DIR := ubuntu/media/usbvideo
Now we just need to remove uvcvideo module (if you have previously installed it):
Code:
sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
Then:
Code:
sudo make install
sudo cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/media/usbvideo/
sudo cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/usb/media/
sudo depmod -ae
sudo modprobe -f uvcvideo
Now everything should work!!!
Let me know!!
And please try both solutions..
in case you don't see any difference just use the SECOND solution (mirrored or not, has you prefer), it should be the safest!!
Good luck,
enjoy your webcam!!
