Subject: gspca-source: compiled and installed module, but not auto-loaded when device added
Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2008 05:18:05 +1030
Package: gspca-source
Version: 01.00.20-1
Severity: normal


Hi, I compiled and installed gspca-source against a 2.6.24 kernel from 
kernel-archive.buildserver.net

make-kpkg --initrd linux-image modules-image

However, when I had rebooted with the new kernel and plugged in a 
Logitech Quickcam IM, the gspca module did not auto load and the 
/dev/video* devices were not created.

Subject: gspca-source: working on another machine under 2.6.25 kernel / radeon 9600
Date: Tue, 13 May 2008 14:31:14 +0930
Package: gspca-source
Followup-For: Bug #462834


I successfully installed this on another machine with 2.6.25 kernel and 
radeon 9600 video (GPL X.org driver).

I suspect that the original machine had a conflict as it had:

libgphoto2-port0                             2.4.0-9                                
gphoto2 digital camera port library

installed.
