I have installed the uvc driver for Logitech Quickcam 9000 which is
supported according to uvc website. The driver is verified as running.
In HWINFO, the usb port shows as Logitech unclassified device.

As near as I can tell.. the driver and the usb device are not seeing
each other. Has anyone else installed and gotten it working?

Thanks,

Rajko,

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, ti didn't help. :-( It talks
about how to get the uvc driver into the kernel, which I already have,
and have verified via lsmod that it is up and running. My problem now
is that somehow the driver and the camera are not communicating with
each other. It seems like I'm missing that ever-elusive "one last step"
here. :-)

I just purchased a Logitech 9000 and got it working quite easily at least with
SUSE 10.3. Just go to YaST -> Spftware Management. Type in the search
bar and type in uvc and install that driver. If your on an older
version of SUSE
and you can't ffind the uvc driver for it let me know.

I'm on 10.3, and that's where I got my uvc driver from as well. I just
figured out in ekiga, it only had v4l plugin and I needed v4l2 plugin.
I installed that and for a brief moment, it worked! Then ekiga said I
had a driver issue with color formats.

"Your driver doesn't seem to support any of the color formats supported
by Ekiga.
Please check your kernel driver documentation in order to determine
which Palette is supported."

I'm investigating further, but at least I'm getting somewhere now. :-)

What programs are you using your webcam with?

Unloading and reloading the driver did the trick with the following
commands:

1. (Unloads driver) modprobe -r uvcvideo
2. (loads driver) modprobe ubcvideo

The trick also is to make sure you have v4l2 support on your machine.
uvcvideo supports v4l2 not v4l1.
