Jeff Hi, You should have followed the v4l-dvb wiki: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain,_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers
you now have mixed modules (new and old) and this is causing the errors. get mercurial, the kernel headers and the full v4l tree from linuxtv. from the top of the hg tree: make rminstall make distclean sudo make menuconfig <--- disable fireDTV or you will end up with errors when building make sudo make install sudo make unload sudo modprobe uvcvideo Best regards, Paulo 2010/3/30 Jeff Van Epps <lord...@lordbah.com>: > I am having trouble getting the OmniVision webcam in the Dell SP2309W > monitor to work under Ubuntu 9.10.
