http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/install.html

Quick Installation:

	(run the appropriate install command)

Compression support:

 - For OV511/OV511+ cameras: The decompression module is ov511_decomp.o . You
   must load ov511.o with the "compress=1" module parameter to enable it.

 - For OV518/OV518+ cameras: The decompression module is ov518_decomp.o .
   Compression will always be enabled; no need to specify compress=1.

 - For all cameras: You must load the decompressor AFTER loading ov511, and you
   must unload the decompressor BEFORE unloading ov511. You will get errors
   otherwise.

Please see ov511.txt for more information.
