I'm resending this since I got an error message last time so if it arrives
twice, my apologies :-)
Hi,
I bought a no-name USB camera after being assured by the dealer that it has
LINUX support. The dealer supplied me with a LINUX module but when trying to
install it, I got the following:
[root@shlomo1 root]# insmod /data2/spca501c-Beta4.o
/data2/spca501c-Beta4.o: kernel-module version mismatch
/data2/spca501c-Beta4.o was compiled for kernel version 2.2.14
while this kernel is version 2.4.8-34.1mdk.
So I looked on Google hoping to find a module for my kernel or source files and
found http://spca50x.sourceforge.net.
I found a module, but got the following error messages when trying to load it:
[root@shlomo1 root]# insmod /data2/spca50x-0.10.o
/data2/spca50x-0.10.o: unresolved symbol usb_free_urb_Rca32852c

/data2/spca50x-0.10.o: unresolved symbol usb_set_interface_R98e4db9e
So I downloaded the source files, and now I have two problems:
1 - On the Sourceforge page it says:
"Your camera is ONLY supported if both its Vendor and Device ID are claimed by
the driver"
but after connecting the USB cable, I find the following in DMESG:
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1/4, assigned device number 27
scanner.c: probe_scanner: Only two or three endpoints supported.
usb.c: USB device 27 (vend/prod 0x0/0x0) is not claimed by any active driver.
So it seems to me that regardless of the module, the camera probably won't be
recognized since the vendor and product id are both 0.
2 - After getting the source files from Sourceforge, I ran make and I got a
module but here is the error message I got when I tried to load it:
[root@shlomo1 spca1]# insmod /data2/spca1/spca50x.o
/data2/spca1/spca50x.o: kernel-module version mismatch
/data2/spca1/spca50x.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.8-26mdk
while this kernel is version 2.4.8-34.1mdk.
So I tried **make install** to use the proper kernel, but here's what I got:
[root@shlomo1 spca1]# make install
Linking spca50x.o
Installing.. Your root password may be required.
su -c "make install-root"
make[1]: Entering directory `/data2/spca1'

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in

make[1]: *** [install-root] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/data2/spca1'
make: *** [install] Error 2
I admit - I'm lost. Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
