IPU6 support on Linux

[wrosenauer]

Hi,

I use a Thinkpad X1 Gen 11 with a Raptor Lake chipset/cpu and an IPU6 camera with openSUSE Tumbleweed.

IPU6 cameras have been a long standing issue and are still not fully supported everywhere but with the latest software in openSUSE:

- kernel 6.13.4

- libcamera 0.4.0

I can finally at least get a video picture from the qcam application which is part of libcamera.

Camera is also referred to as "ov2740" in case that is important.

Still the latest Zoom client 6.3.11 does not show any video. It selects the Camera "ipu6" but it stays black.

Anyone knows the state of support of this camera within Zoom? Should I rather raise a support issue?

Thanks,

 Wolfgang

I had a ticket open already but it was closed more or less as "not supported at this moment".

Hello, any news on this front?
IPU6 cameras are functional with pipewire for a while now.

An ETA would help.
