svc/auth: listen failed to announce

Following install instructions here[1], after running svc/auth, listen
outputs the following:

    listen: failed to announce on 'tcp!*!inflogin': Address family not
supported by protocol
    listen: failed to announce on 'tcp!*!infkey': Address family not
supported by protocol
    listen: failed to announce on 'tcp!*!infsigner': Address family
not supported by protocol
    listen: failed to announce on 'tcp!*!infcsigner': Address family
not supported by protocol

The only file I've changed changed so far is /lib/ndb/local, which now
looks like:

database=
       	file=/lib/ndb/local
	file=/lib/ndb/dns
	file=/lib/ndb/inferno
	file=/lib/ndb/common

#
# default site-wide resources
#
infernosite=
	#dnsdomain=your.domain.com
	#dns=1.2.3.4	# resolver
	SIGNER=zoidberg
	FILESERVER=zoidberg
	#smtp=your_smtpserver_here

probably it's this:

	http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.inferno.general/5203

or in short:  you're probably on linux, with no kernel module available
to support AF_INET6 sockets.

if this is on linux, which distribution is it?  my linux installations
so far all had AF_INET6 sockets available by default.

webcam/ipcam/generic video input experience with inferno

Hello,

I am trying to evaluate an inferno based project's hardware choices and 
architecture.  I'd like to know if anyone has experience or code for 
using any webcam (usb or ip) with inferno (native or hosted)?
I eventually would like the gui I'm writing in limbo/Tk (a control 
program for some rs232 controlled hardware) to have a video window. 
That is the last step and I am unsure about how to plan ahead.
Any previous attempts or code stepping stones are of interest.

Thanks,

Jack

Wow, that flew under my radar...  Thanks!  I saw 'camera' and thought 
just a still camera of some sort.

Looks like only a serial camera is implemented.  That might actually 
work out well (cheap TTL jpeg camera board and a max232 ought to do well 
right?).  I might pick up one of these and see what I can come up with:

However I do want video(320x240 or better would be nice).  I notice in a 
little scan of the code that video is listed as a capability.  I'll need 
to look at this further.  It is a big step for me (conceptually) to go 
from grabbing a single frame and storing it vs. streaming video.  Not 
even close to my area of experience... oh well, how else can one learn? 

Any more tips are greatly appreciated.

Pandora platform (newbie)

Hi,

Would this be a good platform for Inferno?
