Hello all

This is my first post to this list


i have troubles with my webcam and kernel 2.6.27.rc3  (Opensuse)
there are modules loaded gspca  sonic sn9s102 
but no program sees the webcam
The webcam is   Msi StarCam  0xc45 0x60fc   sn9c105  hv7131r   with mic


With the gspcav1 drivers compiled on kernel 2.6.25.11-0.1 (opensuse)
the webcam is seen as a v4L1 webcam see  log below

his is the outcome from the gspca compiled  by me:  om kernel 2.6.25.11

No, it is the second one ;)

This webcam is handled by both the sn9c102 and gspca drivers. If the
driver sn9c102 is generated, gspca does not handle it.

If your webcam worked with gspca v1, it should work with gspca v2. So,
remove the driver sn9c102, get the last gspca v2 from

	http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jfrancois/gspca/

and look at the gspca_README.txt in my page for generation and usage.

Cheers.

Hello Jean

did what say and installed all
still the webcam is nor working
none of the programs will give a picture
either no /dev/video  or cant decode JPEG

recompiled the gspcav1 driver  which gave in nearly every line of
gspca core a error  by rebooting

so i had to update opensuse 11   to get all as it was before including
the kernel
so now we have the  gspcav1 driver and all the webcam programs work fine

So you can go on with the new gspca drivers for 2.6.27.xx   and quite
a few webcam wont work
and most of the programs,
then i wil have this kernel and kernel sources 2.6.25  saved on dvd to
be used by future versions of Opensuse
or the makefile, possible some code  in gspcav1 has to be altered so
we can compile it on 2.6.27

The sensor you have has never been tested with gspca v2. May you give me
more information, i.e. syslog output with gspca_main/debug set to 0xff?

Indeed, if nobody wants to test, these webcams will never work!

You do what you want: if you want to keep the gspca v1 you will have to
maintain it by yourself...

Jean on opensuse there is only 1 .config file and that resides in
/usr/src/linux-2.6.25.11-0.1-obj/x86_64/default

there are also the Makefile modules.alias Module.symvers

all installed when i installed opensuse on that laptop
normaly there is no laptop on that machine so no driver

i have tryed it one again  the same result

[rob koendering]

jean  i come out the IT  so i know my way around

I did delete everything in /ib/modules/kernelxxxxxx/drivers/video

make and make install  there they were again  with date of today

so i dont know  what can be wrong with that

tonight i am with someone who has Udbuntu on his machine  we will try it there
with the same webcam

By the way this kernel has no gspca drivers at all in the kernel

Jean i got the mgspcav1-01.00.20-3 drivers

They compile good     took the compiled modules put then in a map
GSPCA  put that map in the kernel modules    did a depmod -ae
reboot    and the webcam is working as before with the  pspcav1 driver

one more thing  this is a message from WXCAM

Determinig video4linux API version
/dev/video0 is no V4L2 device
Using video4linux 1 API
Found palette VIDEO_PALETTE_RGB24
