Slightly off-topic: I see you have a device there with no name. try running (as root) update-usbids This will give you more up-to-date names of devices. Note that it does not make those devices more supported than before. the USB bus merely reports the vendor and product IDs (well, also a few other similar fields). The name you see there is only set from them. > > I received a suggestion to install gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz > but this is a source and needs a kernel source.

At least in Lenny I see one. Try aptitude install gspca-modules-`uname -r` If no luck, you'll need to build that module for your kernel: aptitude install gspca-source m-a a-i gspca -- Tzafrir Cohen | [email protected] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [email protected] | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
