FYI, that will break this 2005 vintage piece of V4L1 software people may
still be using for the QX5 microscope:

http://www.cryptoforge.net/qx5/qx5view/
http://www.cryptoforge.net/qx5/qx5view/qx5view-0.5.tar.gz

The wiki page happens to mention qx5view:
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/QX5_USB_microscope


Slightly OT: The private V4L2 control for the "Lights" in cpia2_v4l.c
could be changed to Illuminator [12] for the QX5 microscope.

Regards,
Andy
