Installing gspca-modules in 64 Studio .
The gspca-modules contain drivers for webcams, but they need to be compiled for
64 Studio before you can use them, so here's a little how-to ...
This should work for all webcams listed here.
(Make sure) this package is installed:
gspca-modules-2.6.17-2-
version 01.00.04-2+2.6.17-9 (apt.64studio.com)
and this one too:
gspca-source
version 01.00.04-2 (stable)
To unpack the sourcefiles I did:
peter@64studio:/usr/src$ sudo bunzip2 gspca-source.tar.bz2
cd into the new directory:
peter@64studio:/usr/src$ cd modules/gspca/
Now prepare module-assistant:
peter@64studio:/usr/src/
[skip]
a lot of messages came and 'cause all went well, it ended with
...
Done!
Now auto install gspca :
peter@64studio:/usr/src/
[skip]
again a lot of messages and 'cause all went well, again
...
Done!
The driver is now installed and the webcam works :-)
