Try this AFTER connecting the camera:

Let me know what happens. I don't know all the modules that need to be compiled into the kernel for the camera, but for my usb drive, I needed one and tried the above with it, and it worked.

I tried the ov511 modules who comes with the 2.4.26 kernel and loaded the modules ov511 and i2c-core. Without success, no interface was created because the sensor couldn't be found.
I also tried the ov511-2.27 downloaded from Mark McClelland's http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/ page. When I load the module ov511 and i2c-core (ov511_core does not exist) after connecting the camara, syslog prints following messages:

And after accessing /dev/video0 syslog print: 01:43:56 kernel: ov511_core.c: No sensor is detected yet 01:45:00 last message repeated 4 times
Make sure that the ovcamchip driver is loaded. If it still fails to detect the sensor, reload the ov511 driver with the "debug=5" module parameter and post the driver output here.
