Thank you *very* much for your help. The web cam is now working in Kopete. Not tried it with other programs. There's just one thing, though. In your instructions on the previous thread, you ended by doing two modprobes to insert the modules. If I do a modprobe, I get the message that the command 'modprobe' can't be found. Tried both as root and as a user. Thanks again for your help. I appreciate it. Keith
