Hello list,

I'm trying to get driver 10.0.12-rc1 compiled, and here is how I
processed :

-----8<------
~/drivers/pwc $ tar -xjf pwc-10.0.12-rc1.tar.bz2
~/drivers/pwc $ cd pwc-10.0.12-rc1
~/drivers/pwc/pwc-10.0.12-rc1 $ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r6/source
SUBDIRS=/home/raphux/drivers/pwc/pwc-10.0.12-rc1 modules
make[1]: entrant dans le rÃpertoire  /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r6 Â
  Building modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST
make[1]: quittant le rÃpertoire  /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r6 Â
~/drivers/pwc/pwc-10.0.12-rc1 $ sudo make install
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r6/source
SUBDIRS=/home/raphux/drivers/pwc/pwc-10.0.12-rc1 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r6'
  Building modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r6'
install -d /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r6/kernel/drivers/usb/media
install -m 644 -c
pwc.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r6/kernel/drivers/usb/media
install: cannot stat `pwc.ko': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
-----8<-----------

As you can see, nothing is build on the first part "make", so the second
"make install" is even less working.
For information :
$ uname -ar
Linux raphux 2.6.18-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP Sun Jan 14 19:44:15 CET 2007 x86_64 AMD 
Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i v4l
CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2=y
# V4L USB devices
$

If I want the driver to be built in the kernel, I need to select V4L1.
If I select the V4L2, the Philips Webcam option is no more available in
the menu. So I thought that I could select V4L2, build the kernel
without PWC support, and then compile the drivers I downloaded.

Am I doing wrong?

Regards,
