[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI experience so far & question

After the encouragement from Tom Kranz (thanks Tom), I went ahead last
weekend and upgraded from opensolaris snv_134 to oi_147. So far, no problems
have come out of the woodwork and all is well. I'm just waiting a while
before I upgrade zfs to make the change irreversible.

I wanted to ask if anyone has any experience with the Acer Crystal Eye
webcam. This is built into my Laptop (Acer Aspire 5735) and has never worked
with OpenSolaris. I have googled some users who have got it working with
Linux. It's a nice-to-have, and before I spend days on a fruitless search,
perhaps there is someone who knows more than I about this. Any
comments/advice welcome.
