Hi Al,
Google is great and I use it a lot but it seems I am always typing in
the wrong search string at least when I 'm looking for answers to errors
I'm getting while trying to compile packages. I never thought to try it
for this but I am glad you did. The first link seems to be what I need
for the driver. The second, I have downloaded all the source packages
but what I have looked at so far seems to be geared mainly at x86 and
I'm pure 64 bit so I may have some problems with that one. I'm going to
take a look at the suggestion Dan had for the application part in all
this. I have a question about the driver though. The source came down in
what looks like a standalone format with it's own Makefile and all. I am
assuming that what it will build is a kernel module. If in fact that is
true how do I incorporate it into the system? Can I just copy it to
/lib/modules/2.6.18 and include it in modprobe.conf or is there
something else I need to do? Or heaven forbid do I have to include it in
the kernel source tree and rebuild the whole kernel?
Dan,
The kernel modules you gave are all built into the kernel but when I
looked at the directory you pointed me to I did a grep through all the
files for the model of my cam and had no hits so I'm guessing I need to
use the driver Al found. Any suggestions on including it. Actually,
before I go too far with this I had better try to compile that driver
package and see if a module pops out. :-) I may be asking the wrong
question. I'll be back!
Thanks to both of you for all your great help!
Arnie
