I'm running Knoppix installed on HD (Debian).
The webcam is a Sansun SN-510. USBview sees it, but paints it red which I suspect means "not working". I suspect that means "no driver".
Googling tells me there is a driver for it - I've downloaded spca5xx-20050701.tar.gz which should be the right version. I've extracted that as per the instructions.
However, "make" brings up an error message -
/bin/sh: /usr/src/linux-2.6.11/scripts/gcc-version.sh: No such file or directory
which is then followed by a selection of further error messages.
There is indeed no /scripts/ folder in /usr/src/linux-2.6.11
Searching the machine finds no gcc-version.sh anywhere. I'm assuming Knoppix comes without it.
Is this a lost cause? Is there any other way to get a driver to where Knoppix needs it?
