I have a couple of webcams, one being spca5xx based.
Now this webcam has always worked on amsn on all distros (except suse 10.1) but I never got it to work with kopete, I would just get a green screen.
Well I've got round to setting up kopete on kanotix and the webcam works perfectly but only with the kanotix kernel.
Unfortunately, I am unable to use kanotix kernels because they cause my modem to crash so I use debian sid ones.
So my question is - How do I get this module working in non kanotix kernels? |

apt-cache search spca
see if there's a pre-compiled module for your kernel. if not, apt-get the source and build it. didn't do that, so you will be on your own with the source, but it shouldn't be a big problem. |

| Ok I installed the module for my kernel but all I get with kopete is the green screen problem. |
