I'm having some trouble trying to get a webcam working. I've posted a message to the experts list but still wasn't able to solve the problem so I was hoping someone could maybe help out.
It is a Logitech QuickCam Pro 3000 which is supposed to be supported by the Phillips USB webcam drivers. What I've tried is to load videodev modprobe -v videodev and then load pwc modprobe -v size=sif fps=15 I don't get any errors on these. When I try to load any software it can't find the device. ie there is no /dev/video So I create a one with mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0 /proc/devices shows a character device at 81 .. video_capture tried to just make a /dev/video as well. Yet I still get the same error /dev/video: No such device when I use gqcam just to make sure I've check to make sure pwd and videodev are loaded using modprobe ... both are loaded. In case it matters the motherboard is an Abit KT7-Raid. The printer connected via USB. Any suggestions? Greg
