Actually, i think i've made some progress. The problem i'm running into now is when i attempt to run xawtv, i see the following errors: v4l: open /dev/video0: No such device no video grabber device available
[root@hal src]# ls -l /dev/video* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Nov 10 22:40 /dev/video -> video0 crw-rw---- 1 root sys 81, 0 Feb 9 09:36 /dev/video0 crw-rw---- 1 root sys 81, 1 Feb 9 09:36 /dev/video1 [root@hal src]# lsmod Module Size Used by Tainted: P videodev 2912 0 usb-uhci 20964 0 (unused) usbcore 48000 0 [usb-uhci] So i'm a bit stumped at what else could be wrong here.
