Why don't you make an alltogether new kernel? Just copy your old default config file (which can be found in /boot) into /usr/src/linux/.config and then maybe change the required parameter using "make menuconfig". When you're finished with that, just do "make-kpkg kernel_image buildpackage". Afte

Hi Nate, check your dmesg output after having connected the device. It should say something about the device name assigned to your camera. I don't know anything about your kernel config but you also need scsi support as well as scsi disc support included - either as a module or within the kernel
