Hi,

I'm using my nice shiny new Gentoo 1.4 system and haven't had any problems. However, after following the instructions in the ALSA guide I found that emerging the qce-ga module gave the following error:

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o

modprobing gives:

root@er241 er241 # modprobe mod_quickcam
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o: unresolved symbol video_register_device_R053a0ec0
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o: unresolved symbol video_unregister_device_Rd83361ff
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r7/misc/mod_quickcam.o: insmod mod_quickcam failed

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks in advice,

Ed

Hi,

Do you have the videodev module loaded? Try
Code:
modprobe videodev
before loading the mod_quickcam module.

Recompile your kernel with Video For Linux support. This is how I did it with menuconfig:

Code:
Multimedia devices  ---> <M> Video For Linux
Multimedia devices  --->  Video For Linux  ---> [*]   V4L information in proc filesystem


I have also emerged gqcam in order to test the camera. Gnomemeeting works great too.
