Thanks, Dave. Here's what I get. Looks like 81 is right for the major,
but the name doesn't agree with the name of the driver, which is pwc.o
or videodev.o, I'm not sure which.
:setpwc-1.2# cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
1 mem
2 pty/m%d
3 pty/s%d
4 tts/%d
5 cua/%d
7 vcs
10 misc
29 fb
81 video_capture
90 mtd
128 ptm
129 ptm
130 ptm
131 ptm
136 pts/%d
137 pts/%d
138 pts/%d
139 pts/%d
162 raw
180 usb
204 ttyAM%d
205 cuaam%d
Is there anything significant about the fact that my drivers are .o's
and your's is a .ko?

Jeff
