Webcam not working....

[rrfish72]

I have been trying to get my creeative nx webcam to work but cannot seem to get anywhere.
I am running kernel kanotix kernel 2.6.10-6 which should have all the necessary drivers but cannot get it to work. I have seen the site where it says that there is not driver support for this but I would like to find out if anyone has had any success with this type of webcam. This is posted in the kanotix forum and here is what was done so far:

I have had much help thanks to markus and kano.

I'm afraid you just have to wait a while for a driver as the spca driver didn't work.

EDIT: Oops, didn't look at the timestamp on that page.
Well, even if the timestamp is aged, your camera doesn't seem to be supported yet.
Hopefully someone has a solution but I failed to google up one.

Not to forget this, did you ever try the CVS version?

You can download and make the driver with:
cvs -z3 -dserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/zc0302 co -P zc030x
cd zc030x
su
make
Not sure if make install is needed?
Then try loading with something like:
insmod zc030x.ko debug=N

where N = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5

0 = no debug messages
1 = init/detection/unload and other significant messages
2 = some warning messages
3 = config/control function calls
4 = most function calls and data parsing messages
5 = highly repetitive mesgs

Their homepage seems not to be working: http://zc0302.sourceforge.net/zc0302.php
The buglisting is not very promising: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid...49&func=browse
