Hi all,
Sorry for the long post but I'm trying to include as much relevant
information as I can identify.
I've installed FC4 on a:
P4
3GHz
1G RAM
machine.
A few months ago I installed FC4 on my laptop and then installed the
module to run a Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000 - all went well.
Now, with a completely up-to-date FC4 install on my desktop, I find I'm
having problems.
I'm using the same instructions from the same site:
http://saillard.org/linux/pwc/INSTALL.en
However, I get the following error message:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] pwc-10.0.11]$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp/source
SUBDIRS=/home/patrick/config files/webcam/pwc-10.0.11 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.16- 1.2069_FC4-smp-i686'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `files/webcam/pwc-10.0.11'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-smp-i686'
make: *** [all] Error 2
This is the correct Kernel version (as far as I can tell) and I've
installed the headers using YUM:
ie. In /usr/src/
I have the following
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-smp-i686
2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-i586
2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp-i686
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp-i686
2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-smp-i686
I'm not quite sure why the latter two appear so similar (one has a '-'
between FC4 and SMP and the other not).
I'm assuming that this is something to do with the makefile (?) not
finding where the kernel headers are (????), though I'm not sure how to
fix that.
Below is the makefile found in the file I downloaded from site mentioned:
*********************************************

# NOTE: This make file can serve as both an external Makefile (launched
# directly by the user), or as the sub-dir Makefile used by the kernel

driver has a module

binary

*********************************************
Getting the camera to work on my desktop was one of the main reasons for
upgrading versions from FC3 to 4 (and THAT was not a happy moment :))
When I realised it would work in 4 (and did on my laptop) I thought it
should be just as easy. BTW, my laptop has an older Kernel and the
desktop has hyperthreading (or at least I think that's what the SMP bit
stands for (??)).
I posted to the mail group for Saillard but the best reply (well, only
so far) was to reconfigure the 'make' file - which is what I'm seeking
assistance with. I was also informed that the kernel may have broken the
ability to install the module...(?) and should consider degrading to an
earlier kernel (not that I now how to do that).
Any help with attempting to modify the make file and attempt to install
on the machine would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Patrick
