The spca40x is, I believe the outdated one.  Do not mix gspca1 from
mxhaard.free.fr and gspca1.kmdl from atrpms.  Both are available from
atrpms.
gspca1-kmdl is the module, gspca1 is only the doc (one file: Changelog)

rpm -qlp gspcav1-1.00.04-2.fc5.at.i386.rpm
/usr/share/doc/gspcav1-1.00.04
/usr/share/doc/gspcav1-1.00.04/changelog

rpm -qlp gspcav1-kmdl-2.6.18-1.2239.fc5-1.00.04-2.fc5.at.i686.rpm
/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2239.fc5/updates/drivers/usb/media/gspca.ko

Where did you find that info?  I haven't seen it.

I'm using FC6, and the two packages I have installed are

    gspcav1.i386 1.00.04-2.fc6.at
    gspcav1-kmdl-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686 1.00.04-2.fc6.at
I have been reading this thread and saving it for a few days until I could try this webcam. I show the following yum installs in this mornings log, the result of yesterdays install, however 'locate gspcav1' produces only an rpm and two doc files? I have no assurance that they are actually installed other than the log report? [Rpm -Uvh gspcav1 reports that it's already installed?]

Packages Installed:
gspcav1.i386 1.00.04-2.fc6.at
   gspcav1-kmdl-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686 1.00.04-2.fc6.at
lsusb  yields:

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:0870 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 03f0:0701 Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 5300c/5370c
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

So apparently the camera is connected.

I searched yumex for 'webcam' and cam up with 'camE' I asked it to install along with whatever else looked like it might be useful.

CamE has no man page, only a sample configuration file with notations which leave me with some uncertainty. Perhaps there is something better I should use?

Running camE without the configuration file produces the error message that it can not find /dev/video and neither can I.

I'm not sure exactly what to ask at this point but any suggestions are welcomed.
