About the errors you are suffering, image is not clean enough to allow reading the log. There were some changes on -mm that may affect people with third-party drivers (like, for example, some webcam drivers). This is due to a change at video_device structure, used to register video devices. Several third-party drivers just have a copy of videodev.h. So, those drivers compile using the old struct definition, but tries to register the device by calling a function that is expecting the newer struct. Maybe this is your case. > > Is 2.6.18-rc1 OK?
