You mention that you had gotten the webcam to work with that Makefile.
I'm just curious to know if the location of the usbvideo.h was on the
board because I do not have such a device and am curious where I could
locate it. I've searched all over for usbvideo.c/.h files and all are
for 2.4.x but not the 2.4.26 the board uses.
