package pwc-source found 350061 10.0.12-rc1+final-1 thanks Hi, the pwc.ko module is installed in /lib/modules/(`uname -r`)/kernel/drivers/usb/media/pwc.ko again and therefore the upstream kernel module will be loaded instead.

Bug#350061: pwc doesn't override upstream kernel module
Just one quick note before I head off (early morning coming up). The packages ship a file for modutils, which is meant for older 2.2-2.4 kernels. I don't have time to test, but maybe this is where my problem comes from, as my system uses module-init-tools.

Bug#350061: pwc doesn't override upstream kernel module
Hello, Hmmm I think it is similar to the ALSA issue a while back where both kernel and seperate packages supplied the same module. It was basically a crapshoot as to which one would load. Sometimes kernel, sometimes packaged externally stuff. Anyways, I have built a pwc-modules package against Debian kernel 2.6.15-1-686-smp using module-assistant, installed it, and still get just a grey picture in any app that trys to access my webcam. In case you are wondering, I am running a Debian Unstable system :) Here is the dmesg output: rivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver Linux video capture interface: v1.00 pwc Philips webcam module version 9.0.2-unofficial loaded. pwc Supports Philips PCA645/646, PCVC675/680/690, PCVC720[40]/730/740/750 PCVC830/840. pwc Also supports the Askey VC010, various Logitech Quickcams, Samsung MPC-C10 and MPC-C30, pwc the Creative WebCam 5 Pro Ex, SOTEC Afina Eye and Visionite VCS-UC300 and VCS-UM100. pwc Logitech QuickCam Zoom (new model) USB webcam detected. pwc Registered as /dev/video0. usbcore: registered new driver Philips webcam usbcore: registered new driver snd-usb-audio This proves it is still loading the old kernel pwc. My previous one-line patch to the debian/rules file (using dh_link to create a link from /lib/modules/$(KVERS)/misc/pwc.ko to /lib/modules/$(KVERS)/updates/pwc.ko ) works perfectly. It forces modprobe to give priority to pwc-module's pwc.ko (modules in the 'updates' folder take priority over those located elsewhere) After the '$(MAKE) install ...' line in debian/rules, add: # Workaround Debian kernel pwc module always being loaded # Forces pwc-modules' version dh_link lib/modules/$(KVERS)/misc/pwc.ko lib/modules/$(KVERS)/updates/pwc.ko It is quite a simple fix :) Good night, Lawrence On Friday 27 January 2006 07:43, Victor Seva wrote: tags 350061 moreinfo thanks - Hi Lawrence, I have no problems loading the pwc driver.
