Hi Ben

you forgot to do
# modprobe videodev
then /dev/video[n] will get created correctly

try it ;-)

Hi,

I'm trying the same thing, without success. I'm running Ubuntu
Intrepid.


I'm trying to follow the instructions at
http://groups.google.com/group/microdia/web/testing-microdia-driver-draft

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/forays/webcam/microdia$ make clean all
...
 LD [M]  /home/ben/forays/webcam/microdia/microdia.ko
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-10-generic'
ctags: no input files specified.
       Try `ctags --help' for a complete list of options.
make: *** [ctags] Error 1

hmm. According to this thread here it is all ok:
http://groups.google.com/group/microdia/browse_thread/thread/709160c0ded023b6

So I continue:
$ sudo insmod ./microdia.ko
insmod: error inserting './microdia.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module

Try as per the thread says
$ sudo modprobe compat_ioctl32
$ sudo insmod ./microdia.ko

but camorama complains of there not being a /dev/video0. Taking the
thread's instructions,
sudo depmod -a
sudo mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0
sudo chmod 777 /dev/video0

but camorama is still complaining it can't find it. And the following
doesn't work either:
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:outfmt=i420:fps=30


I also tried the
git checkout --track -b development origin/development
suggestion, but insmod gave the same error:
insmod: error inserting './microdia.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module




Thanks!
ben

And for camorama you will need to use the following line:

$ LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libv4l/v4l1compat.so camorama
