webcam trouble

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I'm having some trouble trying to get a webcam working.  It is a
Logitech QuickCam Pro 3000 which is supposed to be supported by the
Phillips USB webcam drivers.

What I've tried is to load videodev 

modprobe -v videodev

and then load pwc

modprobe -v size=sif fps=15

I don't get any errors on these.

When I try to load any software it can't find the device.  ie there is
no /dev/video

So I create a one with mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0

/proc/devices shows a character device at 81 .. video_capture

tried to just make a /dev/video as well.  Yet I still get the same error

/dev/video: No such device when I use gqcam

just to make sure I've check to make sure pwd and videodev are loaded
using modprobe ... both are loaded.

Any suggestions?
