Hi Anne,

I too have those packages installed but have no /dev/video or any
indication that Mandrake sees the device.  The driver won't install on
the current stock kernel.  I'm at work now so I'll have to think about
the path I want to follow to sort this out when I get home.  I really do
appreciate your input and suggestions. Thank you so much.

Warm Regards,

Phil
