Wayne,
All you have to do is install the kernel-source rpm from your
distribution (just drag and drop it on to a running kpackage) and all
will come good. Once the sources are installed, you can ONLY run
'make xconfig' from an su root terminal window at /usr/src/linux/.

You need to install the kernel and gcc and make (at a minimum).
Basically, you need a "devleopment" system.
But frankly, you need to think long & hard about how important this is
to you; if you've never done any development/make/compile/kernel
rebuilds before, well, i

Wayne,
Video for Linux shpuld be in all recent kernels. Open an X terminal
on /usr/src/linux and run make xconfig to see whether v4l is
present. It should be as a module, and not compiled in the kernel
(answer M, not Y).
v4l2 will soon replace v4l, together with a new i2c bus. All this
probabl
do a "make xconfig" in /usr/src/linux and go to that area to be sure.
