install the "uvccapture" program.
CAUTION: this script interferes at a sensitive part of the system.
Existing drivers will be overwritten. It is recommended to safe a backup of these drivers. To do
this, copy all files from "/lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/media/video/" for example
to a USB stick!
# ./install.sh
/lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/modules.dep: OK
cp modules.dep /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/modules.dep
mkdir /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/usb/media
cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko
cp v4l1-compat.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/media/video/
cp v4l2-common.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/media/video/
cp v4l2-int-device.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/media/video/
cp videodev.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-rc5-rt1/kernel/drivers/media/video/
