Probably a dumb question, but I don't have /dev/video0. What creates
these device nodes? I am booting the ts11 kernel from the CF, and
mounting the Debian Sarge root file system. 

RedBoot> load -b 0x00218000 -m disk hda1:/boot/vmlinux-ts11
RedBoot> exec -c "console=ttyAM0,115200 ip=dhcp root=/dev/hda1" 

I'm trying to access a webcam via pwc. It is recognized:

:root# lsusb                                              
                                    
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000                                     
                                    
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0471:0329 Philips                             
                                    

But there is a curious message at the tail of dmesg:

usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs                                
                                    
usb.c: registered new driver hub

hub.c: 3 ports detected                                              
                                    
hub.c: new USB device not_pci-3, assigned address 2                  
                                    
usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x471/0x329) is not claimed by any
active driver.                          

I guess I don't understand what creates /dev/* nodes. Is it the device
drivers themselves? 

Any help would be appreciated.
