If the akmod build fails the first time it gets ignored afterward for that
kernel, I'm not sure how long or if it is ever tried again by default.  You can
build it yourself with akmodbuild, then install the rpm created, and that should
allow it to load when akmodsd starts up (the kernel module will be found).

You can look into /var/cache/akmodsd/ for the log file and where the built rpms
are stored.

I am confused . I get errors at boot-time but

In Dmesg I find....

Linux video capture interface: v2.00
quickcam: QuickCam USB camera found (driver version QuickCam USB 0.6.6 $Date: 2006/11/04 08:38:14 $)
quickcam: Kernel:2.6.25-0.40.rc1.git2.fc9 bus:4 class:FF subclass:FF vendor:046D product:0840
quickcam: Sensor PB-0100/0101 detected
quickcam: Registered device: /dev/video0
usbcore: registered new interface driver quickcam

in lsmod:

quickcam               68780  0

in lsusb:

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 046d:0840 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express

So webcam should work as /dev/video0.
When I fire Skype in the video option I have no choice for any webcam.
