i don't know how/why this is happening. i'm assuming it's a bug in the code.

i'm trying to see if my quickcam web is compatible with the quickcam express driver listed at sourceforge. when i untar the compressed file and attempt to run make, i get the following error:

cc -I/usr/src/linux/drivers/usb -I/usr/src/linux/include -include /usr/src/linux
/include/linux/config.h -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fomit-frame-pointer -pi
pe -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -c quickcam.c
quickcam.c:1:12: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/config.h: No such file or director
y
quickcam.c: In function `usb_quickcam_set_exposure':
quickcam.c:521: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data
type
make: *** [quickcam.o] Error 1

what is this? what can i do about it?

i think your problem is cos you've given the wrong include path for the kernel headers. it might be hardcoded tho...

use /usr/src/linux/include/linux/ (an extra linux). The config.h file is there.

When you get errors like that, try and see if you've got the file that wasn't found, and using ./configure --help will give you a list to sepcify exactly where files might be for various modules etc..

oh, got it. i had to modify the makefile. i've never done that before.
