No I did not, I tried to look through all of this and tried to understand it the best that I could, keep in mind I am a very experienced computer user, and I know a lot about operating systems, programming languages ect, but for some reason the attempts i was making weren't getting me any further,
I did take some codec, and tried to edit the qc-driver.c file but when i did that it said that it couldnt compile the file because of a "memory" varible that they had defined, that was undefined or something like that i cant really remember at the moment.. if you could write a kind of basic, or even a little indepth how to, and post it on my "ubuntu 8.10 interpid forum post" about the webcam not working if everything goes smooth i would love to post it as Solved and then everyone could enjoy it.. I have tried several things, and think it is very interesting how cat'ing /dev/video shows all the data its seeing.. pretty interesting just not video garbled txt, here is the forum i hope you have time to go a little into explaining the steps involved and hopefully i wouldnt have too many questions, its just the launchpad postings were sort of scattard and went through several different kernel builds heres the link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=934968&highlight=QuickCam Again Thank you for your time, Wilson On Tue, Oct 7, 2008 at 1:45 PM, Sebastian Keller <sebastian- [EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Did you apply both patches?
