Where is uvcvideo?

Hi,

according to this article my Webcam is supported by the uvcvideo module which should be present on kernels >= 2.6.26.

# uname -r
2.6.31.6_SMP_820
# modprobe uvcvideo
FATAL: Module uvcvideo not found.

So what do I have to do to install this Module?

Hi,

What is this kernel ? A custom built ?

This module should be in /lib/modules/YOURKERNEL/kernel/drivers/media/video/uvc

Re: Where is uvcvideo?

As Stemp said, that's not a stock Arch kernel.

I can 'modprobe uvcvideo' just fine.
