Ok first let me apologize for my impatiens in bumping my thread in retrospect I 
guess it was pretty rude.  Also I would like to apologize for not following the 
intelligent way to ask a question essay.  However i have read it in the past 
just not recently, have to admit I got lazy and just fired this post up without 
much thought. Mostly frustrated as it seemed like a fairly simple issue 
something I assumed that most people with Gentoo experience would have a quick 
answer for.  Again my apologizes having goggled around all day or two, and 
finding that most of the helpful hints regarding my topic were dead ie wiki is 
down, plus working with google cache is troublesome.

Anyway on with the webcam problems i have emerged gspcav1 and loaded the module 

# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
gspca                 620752  0

but the cameras are still only detected as usb devices and no drivers are being 
loaded.

PLEASE can someone help me with this issue are there other kernel modules i can 
try? other packages to emerge? if so what are they? here is a lsusb of the 2 
devices

Bus 003 Device 006: ID 046d:08f5 Logitech, Inc.
Bus 003 Device 007: ID 04c1:009d U.S. Robotics (3Com) HomeConnect WebCam [vicam]

this is how they show up in /etc/messages

Oct 18 18:43:35 huang usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and 
address 7
Oct 18 18:43:35 huang usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Oct 18 18:43:45 huang hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1
Oct 18 18:43:46 huang usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and 
address 2
Oct 18 18:43:46 huang usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

ps i have had these cameras work in ubuntu, mandrake, pclinux (none are as cool 
as Gentoo) so i am guessing that gentoo should work too!
