Public bug reported:
I can tell I have gspca on my system, because when I use,
'$ sudo modprobe -l | grep gsp' it returns:

However, 'sudo modprobe gspca' returns:
'FATAL: Module gspca not found.'
//=============================================================
Also, when I try to compile gspca's general webcam driver package from
source, it says that the module is not found as well:
'$ 'make [config|menuconfig|xconfig]; make dep'.
$ cd /home/xxx/Desktop/gspcav1-20071224
~/Desktop/gspcav1-20071224$ sudo ./gspca_build' ..returns:

//=============================================================
I have a Microsoft Lifecam VX3000, which is listed under hardware, in my
'Sound Preferences' (so it is recognized), but doesn't work.
In Skype and Cheese it just displays a green screen, and when I try to
do a sound test in 'System Testing' I never hear any audio played back
(the cam is supposed to work as a mic as well).
