+REQUIREMENTS:
+
+PRECAUTION:
+
+ Remove this port before upgrading the kernel then do a force rebuild then
+ install, after you have rebooted into the new kernel.
+
+PRE-INSTALL:
+
+ USB and Video4Linux must be in the kernel, and modprobed if built as modules,
+ also the kernel source must be present in:
+ "/usr/src/linux-VERSION" VERSION being what "uname -r" returns.
+
+POST-INSTALL:
+
+ Add "/sbin/modprobe quickcam" to /etc/rc.modules
+
+PRE-REMOVE:
+
+POST-REMOVE:
+
+NOTES:
+
+I find setting MODPROBE=/sbin/modprobe easier, then use:
+
+$MODPROBE quickcam
+
+This does not compile on kernel 2.6.18 or above.
