# Here is a README file for people who will need it to install the
driver correctly, this guide is made for Fedora users but other Linux
users can also adopt it as per their distros. Make sure to change the
code for the driver as per your lsusb output.
1. Open **terminal** and do: `cd $HOME`
2. Then run this command: `dnf download --source kernel-modules-extra-$(uname
-r)`
3. Then run unzip command to extract the source: `unzip
kernel-6.4.12-200.fc38.src.zip -d kernel; cd kernel;`
4. Then extract the **linux-*.tar.xz**: `tar -xvf linux-*.tar.xz;`
5. Then change directory _replace x here_ : `cd
linux-x.x.xx/drivers/media/usb/uvc`
6. Then Type : `gnome-text-editor uvc_driver.c`
7. Now search for this line with `ctrl+f` **static const struct usb_device_id
uvc_ids[] = {**
8. Add the following on the next line:
```
/* Quanta ACER HD User Facing 4033 - Experimental !! */
{ .match_flags = USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_DEVICE
| USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_INT_INFO,
.idVendor = 0x0408,
.idProduct = 0x4033,
.bInterfaceClass = USB_CLASS_VIDEO,
.bInterfaceSubClass = 1,
.bInterfaceProtocol = UVC_PC_PROTOCOL_15,
.driver_info = (kernel_ulong_t) &(const struct uvc_device_info ) {
.uvc_version = 0x010a, } },
```
9. Save this file.
10. Run: `sudo make -j4 -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) modules`
11. Now run: `sudo rmmod uvcvideo.ko`
12. Then run: `sudo insmod ./uvcvideo.ko`

Title:
UVC Quanta 0408:4035 camera PROBLEM
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I bought a Acer Nitro 5 AN517-55 with Quanta ACER HD User Facing',
USB 0408:4035.
The camera is reported to have problems by many users:
https://linux-hardware.org/?id=usb:0408-4035
The uvc camera Quanta 0408:4035 does not work with ubuntu 22,04. the camera
is “recongized” but fails installation.
My console commands report similar info to other users:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/723504/integrated-camera-not-detected-working-on-acer-nitro-5-an515-58
PROPOSED SOLUTION
I got in contact with laurent.pinch...@ideasonboard.com and with
riba...@chromium.org , and subscribed to https://www.linuxtv.org/lists. And
me...@vger.kernel.org mailinglist.
Laurent proposed me a fix and I modified the 5,15 uvc_driver.c
version, and loaded it on github
https://github.com/Giuliano69/uvc_driver-for-Quanta-HD-User-
Facing-0x0408-0x4035-/blob/main/uvc_driver.c
I offered to test the fix, so I tried to compile the module with the
new source.
COMPILING PROBLEMS
I’m running **Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, with kernel
giuliano@Astra2A:/usr/src$ cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 5.15.0-56.62-generic 5.15.64
BUT the linux-source that I found installed seems to be different
tgiuliano@Astra2A:/usr/src$ ls -al linux-so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 nov 22 16:08 linux-source-5.15.0.tar.bz2 ->
linux-source-5.15.0/linux-source-5.15.0.tar.bz2
I expanded the tar file, configured the IDE and compiled without error any
errors…
I manually copied the uvcvideo.ko in
/lib/modules/5.15.0-56-
sudo cp…...
then tryed to intall the new uvcvideo.ko module
sudo rmmod uvcvideo && sudo modprobe uvcvideo
BUT… IT FAILS
giuliano@Astra2A:~$ sudo rmmod uvcvideo && sudo modprobe uvcvideo
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'uvcvideo': Exec format error
and dmesg shows
[25961.151982] usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo
[26323.125534] usbcore: deregistering interface driver uvcvideo
[26323.189294] uvcvideo: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
These are the TWO modinfo from the old and new uvcvideo modules
https://pastebin.com/tSj8Exm6
Basically
OLD module: vermagic: 5.15.0-56-generic SMP mod_unload modversions
NEW module: vermagic: 5.15.64 SMP mod_unload modversions
-kindly ASK
HOW can FORCE the uvcdriver.c to match mi kernel version ?
Have I got OTHER ways to make the kernel module I’m compiling, match my
running system ?
I would like to test the module so to confirm the patch and let it
enter the kernel main stream...
BR
Giuliano
PS
btw…. to allow Eclipse to compile the kernel, I had to pass this commands
scripts/config --disable CONFIG_SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
hope that this does not affect the module layout & checking
