Hi all, I have read through the posts in the archives and have made some headway and have now installed the Kernel headers, gcc and kernel-devel for my i686.

I'm running a P4 3GHz (hyperthreaded), 1Gb RAM FC4, new install, completely updated (as of yesterday) machine.

I wish to run my Logitech Pro 4000 which is already running on my laptop ( FC4 kernel 2.6.13-1.1532) with no problems.

When attempting make (using either pwc-10.0.11 or pwc-10.0.7a), I get:

make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp/source SUBDIRS=/home/patrick/config files/webcam/pwc-10.0.7a modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-smp-i686'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `files/webcam/pwc-10.0.7a'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-smp-i686'
make: *** [default] Error 2

(I've noticed that the kernel says 'FC4-smp-i686', though the kernel running on my machine is kernel '2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp' - I am not clear how to resolve this)

Following on from a post made by "peter at meta-logica.com Fri Nov 4 01:43:42 2005"

I have the following information:

cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp (gcc version 4.0.2 20051125 (Red Hat 4.0.2-8)) #1 SMP Tue Mar 28 12:47:32 EST 2006

rpm -qa kernel*

kernel-smp-devel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4
kernel-devel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4
kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.16-1.2096_FC4
kernel-devel-2.6.16-1.2096_FC4
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
kernel-smp-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
kernel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4


rpm -qa make gcc
gcc-4.0.2-8.fc4
make-3.80-7

I followed the directions:

# cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/source/
# make oldconfig

Though I had no success.

I cannot institute this piece of advice:

cd /usr/src/linux
make cloneconfig
make modules_prepare

As I have /linux directory in /usr/src

As stated above, I have exactly the same camera running on my laptop. Following luc's directions on the site made the install a breeze and would like to get it going on my desktop (have rels who have moved to Hong Kong and my wife would like to video conf with them and getting out the lappie, though possible, is not convenient :))

Any redirection to an existing post would be appreciated, as would any other assistance.

Many regards,

Patrick
