Well, I didn't use the rpms to get mine working. I just grabbed the

at the end of the compile, really slick!, then I fired up kopete
(installed with KDE) and opened it's config / video and there I was
looking back at myself. That's all it took. So, if you can recall
all the rpms you installed and can erase them, grab the tarball and
compile it. If you upgrade your kernel, you'll have to re make the
package again. Ric

Sorry to trouble you again, but I have a problem. I wonder if you
would please advise me what to do?
I have done a fresh basic KDE installation on my spare hard drive.
The un-tarring of gspca went OK, as did the ./configure.
However, make stopped with the error message:
/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/build No such file or directory
There is an empty file called build, but it has a question mark on it.
I haven't a clue what to do about it. The kernel headers are
installed, but I am wondering if there is another package which
should have been installed, but is missing. I'm probably wrong,
though!
I would be using the standard ./configure,make, make install - if
that is correct.
Many thanks
Keith
