OK, I'll explain.The driver (sn9c20x.ko) is a kernel module which means it isn't a stand-alone program but a loadable part of the linux kernel.
The command # insmod sn9c20x.ko loads the driver into the kernel and thereby makes the camera work. the command # rmmod sn9c20x will do the opposite and unload the module again.The patch modified the driver to add support for your webcam. However the new driver has to be loaded.
So first we unload the old version with: # rmmod sn9c20x Then we rebuild the driver: $ make clean driver And then we load the new driver again: # insmod sn9c20x.koThen you may test your webcam again (as described in the README file) and hopfully it will work.
