hy
i have i problem.. i use always kernel compile from apt-get
" apt-get install kernel-lalalala "

But i have a webcam, and dont work.. maybey usb suport it's not load or it's not possilble i dont know
anyone help me?
tks

Do a google search on the type of webcam + Linux and see what you need. The usb modules should be available via modconf command as root. Insert the relevant usb driver you need. I also suggest apt-get installing hotplug and discover to make the diver initialisation at boot easier

support for some phillips webcams was pulled from the 2.6 kernel recently due to a proprietary module in the driver.

try 2.6.6 or 2.6.7 maybe.

yes i have 2.6.6 and the open it's on usb, but i cant get the files in.. maybey the kernel dont suport i dont know..
where i can catch if it's working the usb port?
tks

follow tigeroc's suggestion and do

check to see if there are any pertinant kernel messages with

firth tks for help me

Debugging information for the printer according to this thread I found doing a quick google linux search on the error message it should be harmless but annoying.

printer? lol
but i dont have a printer.

i just only put my webcam usb work, only that..
if only help me thanks very much

anyone know?

i need big help really :/

why no one help me ? nobody know's ?

we need more details.

like manufacturer, device name, etc.

do a google search on "linux <manufacturer> <device name>" to find more info about how to get the webcam working. also, do a search for "linux webcams" in order to get webcams working. try posting in a different forum because i don't think a lot of debian users use webcams. good luck.

it's not webcam.. it's a cam digital usb
but the problem is.. i thing i dont have usb on my kernel.. :|
