Cannot install Web Cam Driver!


Hi guys, I desperately need help fro you guys. I have to pass up pass up my final year project in three more weeks. It's very important for me to install a web cam. Pls....

I tried to install driver ov511-2.30 for my Creative PD0040 webcam. I followed all the instruction - make clean, make install. But it somehow failed. There are two error regarding to ovcamchip_core.c stating cannot identified 'id' initializer.

My OS is Fedora Core 4 with 2.6.11 kernel.

Your help is really appreciated.

Possibly try the stable version of the drivers to see if they work
