ov51x-jpeg rpm was available for opensuse 11.0 and previous versions. I fail to find it for 11.1. My webcam requires it (IIRC it is a creative webcam ... if anybody requires details I can pull it out of my basement).I am comfortable with command-line, however I would prefer not to compile the source code (I am not familiar with compiling kernel modules )

I am trying to install the ov51x jpeg 0.5.3 driver for Sony's EyeToy cam on PS2 Linux BlackRhino kernel 2.4.17 which has video4linux 1 enabled and the ov511 driver loaded as a module (which I DO NOT load wen the ov51x driver is loaded).
So - When I install 1.65-1.10-mark from [url] everything goes well and the video device /dev/ps2video0 can be oppened with mplayer or effectv, but the video screen is black with only a line in the top end on black and white dots - similar to what tv-s show when there is no signal.
Using the 1.65-1.11-mark driver and anything above including ov51x jpeg drivers up to 0.5.4 (after 0.5.4 kernel 2.4 is not supported) the video device is not found. - "No such device".
When unloading this module there is a message "kernel panic bad unregister" and none of the input devices works untill the PS2 is restarted. This also happens when I unplug the camera.
In other words - there is some change in 1.65-1.11 that makes the driver not work.
I am trying to make a script which will analyze jpeg images taken from a webcam. i can get a image easily enough but i can't figure out a way to get the images average brightness as a number.

When I unplug the webcam and plug it into another USB-port and start skype again, it works most of the time. Sometimes I have to repeat this several times. Wen it works, the output of dmesg is:

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy gentoo laptop doesn't have a serial port, so I got a usb-serial (RS-232) adapter from ebay. However when I plug it in, the only thing dmesg mentiones is: Code:usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2I've tried to look for a kernel driver in "make menuconfig" by pressing "/" and typing 232. Nothing about RS-232. Device Drivers -> Character drivers -> Serial drivers has 8250 and UART as a module. Device Drivers -> USB support -> USB serial converter support has in-kernel: USB generic serial driver, and FTDI Single port driver as a module, but it still isn't getting recognized.Is there some module i forgot to enable, or do i have to download a separate module from somewhere?

Upon starting it from prompt I noticed the following error : libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 2 more bits The program 'cheese' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust installed OpenSUSE 11.3 64-bit. I have a program that uses libjpeg, so I installed libjpeg and the dev modules. It has both version 6 and 8 installed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my Ubuntu (10.04) system, the Ativa SMP-6AS webcam has worked out of the box. On a minimalistic (no gui) Debian Lenny system, it only creates devices for audio (/dev/audio1, /dev/dsp1, /dev/mixer1), but no corresponding /dev/video0 (like it does on Ubuntu). How do I find out what driver it's using on the Ubuntu system so I can install it on the Debian?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am migrating to Ubuntu and so far I find it superior. But there are a few things that are a little difficult to grasp. The installation of a webcam driver is intricate. I've downloaded the driver ov511-1.65.tar.gz which is applicable to my old and faithful Creative webcam. From [URL] I got the OV511 Installation Instructions:
But I fail at the first step, to become root. This is what I get:
Code:

I tried several times and wrote the password I use to start the session, the only one I have. It doesn't help that you are blind to the results of typing, but I tried again and again. I can't be that wrong always.
Also I can't decompress the driver.

I can't determine which gspca I need.
I am pretty concerned with my build-in webcam. The problem is, that it does not work properly and I guess that the driver crashes my interrups to access it. The result is, that my system is damn slow, almost unusable. In previous issues of Fedora, I was able to un-install the gspca driver and the system worked fine again. Now, I cannot find this driver - so where is it gone?
