I did find this in /var/log/messages: Nov 12 12:09:41 david Installed: gspcav1-kmdl-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686 1.00.04-2.fc6.at Nov 12 12:09:41 david Installed: gspcav1.i386 1.00.04-2.fc6.at Nov 12 12:12:23 david kernel: usb 5-1.2: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5 Nov 12 12:12:23 david kernel: usb 5-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Nov 12 12:12:24 david kernel: gspca: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
