Re: [PLUG] WebCam in linux?

[Noah Silva <nsilva@atari-source.com>]

Ok, 

well I got the QuickCam, it is a "QuickCam Web", for $32 at my local
illegal computer store...

I plugged it in, and the audio was automatically recognized, but not the
video.  I downloaded the drivers and typed "make", to make them.  I had
to make some sym links for it to find the kernal headers, but then it
made ok.

next I try to insert the module it compiled and get:

      and it has unresolved symbols.  Contact the module supplier for
      assistance, only they can help you.

root@feklar:/root/quickcam-web# 

Any ideas?  this is on Debian 3.0 on 2.4.17-k7 on amd XP1700.

There were two very similar archives with the drivers, they did nearly
the same thing.
