Thank you all for your suggestions for getting my webcam to work. There are too many to quote here! I have worked through them all, but no success. There were lots of error messages. My kernel was i586, the kernel-devel was i686, and the headers were i386. Wondering if that was the problem, I did a fresh installation on my spare hard drive, specifying 'linux 686' at the start of the install. I now have i686 for both the kernel and the kernel-devel, but still i386 for the headers. I can't find any i686 headers to install, but I thought that they were part of the devel package? If so, surely they should be i686? I have worked through your suggestions again, but still nothing. There is no /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/build directory. Perhaps I should update the kernel and see if that helps? At my low level of expertise, I am reluctant to do it if it's not necessary! Incidentally, on two other distros, both of which have the 'build' directory, I have tried compiling the gspca tarball as suggested by Ric. In both cases I had success and my web cam works. That is the situation at the moment. Cheers Keith -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
