Ubuntu :: Installing Webcam Drivers On 11.04 ?

Jun 8, 2011

I've been trying to install all the drivers for my laptop that I recently installed Ubuntu on and I've been having trouble installing the driver for my webcam.

I followed the instructions on Ubuntu Documentation > Community Documentation > Ov51x (sorry but I can't post links) but I'm having trouble with preparing the installation files with the "make" command.

This is the message I keep getting:

(See attached picture)

Also, as an aside, I often get the message when I'm trying to install a package that it is "Unable to locate pack ______".

Hardware :: Finding / Installing Drivers For Philips SIC4750/27 Webcam

Jul 9, 2010

I have a Philips webcam I would like to get to work with a proper driver on Ubuntu 10.04. It will work under a generic driver on programs such as Skype, but as soon as I try to use it for web cam sites such as BlogTV, it will say "Webcam required on this site."I have seen similar posts on this and other websites, pointing towards SPCA, but everything I have tried has not worked.When trying SPCA, I tried to do install on the terminal and all that would happen is terminal would respond with: "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded."Is there an easier method I am missing here, or is there something am I doing wrong?

Ubuntu Installation :: ThinkPad T400 - Video And Webcam Drivers

Dec 30, 2010

I would like to install Ubuntu 10 on my Thinkpad T400, but would like feedback from other T400 users that have Ubuntu running on their laptops. First, will it recognize all my hardware? I hear most Thinkpad users had issues with video and webcam drivers, but that was with an earlier version of Ubuntu 8 through 9. So my plan is to have Ubuntu 10 as my primary OS on the T400 and use Win7 within VMware.

So I found this webcam lying around, and I ordered the installation disk online and it came in the mail the other day, so I installed it with Wine and got all the programs it came with to work fine.

Ubuntu :: Mic - Installing The Spca5xx Driver For Webcam - General Things

Feb 3, 2010

I did some research on both Mic and Webcam, but nothing for the mic seems to work, and I can't seem to find decent instructions for installing the spca5xx driver for my webcam. lsusb result for my webcam: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04fc:0561 Sunplus Technology Co., Ltd Flexcam 100

My mic, on the otherhand, doesn't seem to be nothing too special. It plugs into the back of the computer right next to the speakers. I've searched everywhere for how to fix these, but can't seem to find anything that works. As for my mic, I've tried installing the... linux modules backport, etc... through synaptic, nothing. I've gone through alsamixer, and sound properties. The only thing I can think of, is that the computer isn't reading my mic.

Sorry if this post is kind of scattered, but I've gotten 2 hours of sleep last night, and not able to sleep again, Also, if anyone can point me in a direction of IM services that allow AIM, MSN, and YIM chat support through my friends on the windows OS. I've heard of Skype, but I don't want to seem too demanding to ask them all to download a program just to speak with / see me.

Debian :: Correctly Installing ATI Drivers

Oct 17, 2015

I have two monitors, a primary crt which I usually run at 100-160hz depending on the resolution, and a secondary lcd which I run at 144hz. I can't set either to anything above 60hz or any respectable resolution.

I'm running debian 8 with gnome. Apparently I can't use propietary drivers with gnome because it isn't supported and I have to use the open source ones. So I used this website as a guide to install drivers: [URL] ....

I tried:

1. Code: Select all# Debian 8 "Jessie"
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free

Which gave me nothing. First line didn't do anything at all, second one didn't work because 'deb' isn't a valid command.

2. Code: Select all# apt-get update
Worked as per usual.

3. Code: Select all# apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-video-ati
Only one installed, and that was xserver.The other ones failed (werent found or something?). Anyway as per instructions i rebooted and ofcourse nothing happened. I am pretty sure since step 1 was probably meant to add to the repository, step 3 wasnt able to complete.

But my concerns are...
1. How am I meant to do step 1 if it isn't a real command
2. Should I (or can I) change to something other than gnome, because I don't think its worth missing out on propietary drivers just to use gnome.

My card is a hd7970.

Fedora :: Installing The Drivers For WGUSB-ANT?

Mar 12, 2011

I just installed Fedora 14 on my laptop and I'm giving it a shot for the first time. I'm trying to install the drivers for the WGUSB-ANT, which I downloaded from this page:

[URL]

The readme says all I need to do is run a couple of scripts and it will untar the tarballs and everything for me, so I run the first script "makedrv" as root using "bash makedrv":

Code:

[root@localhost rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007]# bash makedrv
ieee80211/
ieee80211/license
ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt.c
ieee80211/ieee80211_tx.c

[code]....

So, it doesn't "make". the "build" shortcut it's trying to use is broken, and the file it want doesn't exist. was i supposed to have put these files in some specific location, before starting? I just ran everything from my Downloads folder... it must be some obvious mistake like that, I'm just too noobish to know exactly what to do.

Ubuntu :: Installing Nvidia Drivers In 9.10?

When I had a wubi install(after I restarted, logged in, etc.) a little icon appeared in the top right-hand corner of the screen informing me of an nvidia driver update, which was required to run compiz desktop effects. Now I have ubuntu installed on an actual hard drive(wubi was deleted beforehand) and I get no such icon. So I'm wondering how to update my drivers. BTW I have a 9500GT

Ubuntu :: Installing Drivers For AWUS036H On 10.10?

Jan 12, 2011

I have been using Linux for over a month and have gone through several books on it. My weak point in linux is system internals and the kernel, (which I am reading up on now). I am a computer scientist and so I am computer savvy, but have not had much experience until recently with linux. (I was a windows guy, but Ubuntu 10.10 has changed my opinion) I am trying to install drivers for the alfa networks wireless adapter AWUS036H. I followed their online manual and I didn't get very far. After looking at the error messages then I assume it is a kernel issue. Here is the error messages I get when I am trying to make the program:

steven@steven-Satellite-A100:~/Downloads/Software/Wireless_Adapters/AWUS051NH/Drivers/RT2870_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.0$ sudo make
[sudo] password for steven:
make -C tools

Hardware :: Installing Drivers For Windows?

Aug 2, 2010

I'm working on a friend's computer, and I'm having many problems. During windows boot the usb keyboard and mouse will not function. The keyboard works in the bios and i put linux in, and the everything works fine.

I'm assuming the usb drivers may have been corrupted? So the only way i know how to solve the problem would be to use linux to install the drivers? Is this possible?

Originally the problem was the cd-dvd was not working so we replaced it.. now the usb's do not work.
