Hello,
I am running etch and I have a pleomax pwc-2100 webcam by Pixart Imaging
Inc. The pwc-2100 doesn't run out the box. After googling a bit, I found
that it needs the gspca module. I installed the gspca-source and
followed the instructions in /usr/share/doc/gspca-source/readme.debian:
$ m-a prepare
$ m-a a-i gspca
the process ends with errors. Looking at the log file in the
module-assistant log file viewer, I found the following lines which
report errors:
scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in
"/usr/src/modules/gsp (<-----line is out of margins here)

I never used module-assistant before. Any help will be very much
appreciated!
Which version of gspca-source do you use? It seems that you are running
a backported 2.6.26 kernel, so maybe you need to use the newer
gspca-source package from Lenny. (Unfortunately, a backported package of
the newer gspca-source version does not seem to be available.)
