Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] SuSE 8.2 & Quickcam Pro 4000

Beautiful video from a great little cam!

The problem appears to have been solved by:

1) ignoring the suggestion on the Philips webcam web site regarding the 
optimal location for the pwcx.o module;

2) placing that module (version 8.2.2) instead in    
/lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/kernel/drivers/usb/ and running 'depmod -a' once 
there as root;

 3) adding the following two lines to the /etc/modules.conf file--

post-install pwc /sbin/insmod --force 
/lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/kernel/drivers/usb/pwcx-i386.o >/dev/null 2>& 1 ||:

options pwc compression=0 dev_hint=1 fps=25 leds=250,250 mbufs=2 size=vga

4) and using the pwlib and openh323 versions that come with SuSE 8.2.

Cheers.
