"Nothing to do"

BTW: uname -r results " 2.6.19-1.2911.fc6"

Do you have an "atrpms.repo" in /etc/yum.repos.d ?

[atrpms]
name=Fedora Core 6 - i386 - ATrpms
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/fc6-i386/atrpms/stable
failovermethod=priority

Anyaway, this is the module you need:

duh! - it was already installed. That's why it was saying nothing to do.
I guess it doesn't support the camera after all, even though the doc
seemed to say it did.

Upon further investigation, the sources say "for developers only"

Thanks so much for the help.

What does /sbin/lsusb show? Is the camera there?

One app that I find works well with webcams, as long as they are detected is
"Camstream".

I can appreciate the frustration. there are similar problems on some sound
cards, and TV tuner cards, etc.

It may be worth trying a different webcam. The lifetec LT9388 using the ov511+
driver, which I have, works ok. See what's available, and check them out
before buying.

Don't give up.

Nigel.
