Hello everybody,i'm from Italy and sorry for my english.
I'd try to install UVC driver for my webcam(SPC100NC)but i've got a problem.
I do this:
maximilian@linux-box:~$ su
Password:
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian# svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
Checked out revision 212.
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian# cd trunk
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk# make
Building USB Video Class driver...
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24.5'

root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk# modprobe uvcvideo
FATAL: Module uvcvideo not found.
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk#

After i do this:
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk#file /lib/modules/2.6.24.5-smp/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko
And this is the output:
/lib/modules/2.6.24.5-smp/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk#

And then i tried:
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk# insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24.5-smp/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko
insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/2.6.24.5-smp/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
root@linux-box:/home/maximilian/trunk#

Can you help me ,please?
Thanks a lot.

It seems that somehow the make install does not run depmod correctly. Run:to see if it helps.

Regards

Sorry but i'm not expert,the right command is:
make install depmod -a ?

Just run

I took the opportunity and created a SlackBuild plus Slackware 12.1 packag e for this driver;
See http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/linux-uvc/

I have no webcam to test this with, but the module loads properly and registers a V4L2 device.

Eric

with depmod -a it runs ok.Both kopete and skype have recognizied the webcam but they don't show image.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Does it work with ekiga ?

I have not ekiga installed.I don't know its dependencies.

opal and pwlib, these can be obtained either from:

Alien Bob

or Slackbuilds
http://slackbuilds.org/result/?sv=12.1&search=ekiga

your choice
