thanks for testing our driver, the issue here is you are using an older kernel, we recently merged our development changes to our master code branch (developers are working with linux v2.6.27+)thats why you are getting an error like error: 'V4L2_CID_EXPOSURE_AUTO' So if you are following the install instructions, modify them as below after you do git clone do the following $ git checkout last-release-without-libv4l then proceed as you normally would. what the additional instruction does is to you old source code, that works on older kernels, hope this fixes you issue immediately. we would expect you to move to linux 2.6.27 soon. -JoJo On Sat, Nov 29, 2008 at 5:39 PM, Fabio Scuderi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Fabio Scuderi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2008/11/29 Subject: Fwd: I: Trust 0811-2620-1055 - EN - 15007 - Megapixel USB2 Webcam Live WB-5400 To: [email protected] Dear Microdia, I've boiught a Trust webcam and I'm running Linux Ubuntu.

You're right. That patch needs to get into master if we want to save ourselves from hundreds of these problems.
Actually 2.6.25 should already do the trick. GWater

Subject: [PATCH] Fix build problems for kernel < 2.6.25 because of undefined
V4L2_CID
The V4L2 spec claims that the changes were included into kernel
2.6.25 therefore I also changed the #if statement.
