WebCam3 USB problem
Hi, everybody!
I'm trying to configure a webcam3 USB in my 2.3.99-pre6 Linux
box, but when I run xawtv it gives an error message saying that
there's no /dev/video device.
Here is the situation:
cartman:~# cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
1 mem
2 pty
3 ttyp
4 ttyS
5 cua
7 vcs
10 misc
81 video_capture <======= Should it be 180 ? (see below)
128 ptm
136 pts
162 raw
180 usb <======= ????
Block devices:
3 ide0
cartman:~# cat /proc/modules
ov511 22100 0 (unused) <== This is the driver
for w3cam usb
serial 41284 1 (autoclean)
videodev 3072 0 [ov511]
nfs 49652 0
lockd 41300 0 [nfs]
sunrpc 60516 0 [nfs lockd]
tulip 33244 1
cartman:~# ls -al /dev/video
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 10 20:38 /dev/video -> video0
cartman:~# ls -al /dev/video0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 May 10 20:38 /dev/video0
May someone give me any sugestions?
Thanks in advance!
