Thanks; I see I boobed there, after reading the instructions. I have now
downloaded the latest driver (today's snapshot pwc-v4l2-20061108-042701), but
I still have the same problem!
:/home/adrian# lsmod | grep pwc
pwc 84000 0
videodev 9856 1 pwc
usbcore 130820 3 pwc,uhci_hcd
:/home/adrian# ls /dev/vid*
ls: /dev/vid*: No such file or directory
Where's v4l2_common gone? Was it important?
