Hi,<br />

I run <strong>Linux</strong>, Fedora Core 4 and I would like to install a <strong>Webcam</strong> <strong>Logitech</strong><br />

<strong>Quickcam</strong> <strong>Sphere</strong>.<br />

I activated as a module the option − Device Drivers − Usb support − USb<br />

Philips Cameras (USB_PWC module), I activated the Video 4 <strong>Linux</strong> options,<br />

and I recompiled the kernel.<br />

(I saw there is no longer an option for the USB_PWCX module, it seems there<br />

were a problem between the developer of the driver and the maintainers of<br />

the kernel).<br />

Once done, I rebooted, and run a "/sbin/modprobe pwc"<br />

The file /var/log/messages gives me that :<br />

Dec 29 09:31:49 celtes2 kernel: <strong>Linux</strong> video capture interface: v1.00<br />

Dec 29 09:31:49 celtes2 kernel: pwc Philips webcam module version<br />

9.0.2−unofficial loaded.<br />

Dec 29 09:31:49 celtes2 kernel: pwc Supports Philips PCA645/646,<br />

<strong>Logitech</strong> <strong>Quickcam</strong>s, Samsung MPC−C10 and MPC−C30,<br />

Dec 29 09:31:49 celtes2 kernel: pwc the Creative WebCam 5 & Pro Ex, SOTEC<br />

webcam<br />

But the webcam doesn't work at all. It is always off.<br />

Is it the wrong module ?<br />

I don't know now, how to make it work. Help appreciated. Thanks.<br />

Francois<br />
