Hi Ike, Due to my impatience, I dove right in to compiling a new kernel without being very cautious. I didn't use any .deb packages, I did everything from the source, as I did this time, except after running the patch, I used make-kpkg menuconfig instead of oldconfig to build the kernel_image.deb file without knowing what I was doing. After I ran the deb file, there was an update that popped up. I went ahead and ran the update, which took a very long time. When I rebooted, the kernel had changed to 2.6.28.10, no matter which option I chose from the GRUB menu, and everything went downhill from there. I chose to just reinstall from scratch after that.
This time, I used the source file from your page, ran the patch, built the image from that using make-kpkg oldconfig, then ran the .deb file. After rebooting, everything went just fine, except for using the wrong naming options, which again named the image file 2.6.28.10-custom.1.0. I checked the two files from the patch (gspca.txt and the .c file), which showed my camera had been added, then tested the camera on Cheese. The camera turned on and worked fine. Thank you for the link. I will definitely educate myself further on the subject.
