Gamblers doth Idyl

Spent a few hours today trying every variation of fixes on the web.

This one actually works! Thanks to Jeff Rasmussen: http://jeffrasmussen.wordpress.com/2009/02/04/ubuntu-quickcam-express/

On his Step 11: In case you don’t know: remove the module thusly: sudo modprobe -r quickcam

Here is a copy of the code already patched and ready to go:

qc-usb-source-patched-for-ubuntu-8.10.tar.gz

With this code you should just have to:

remove your camera from the usb port
make quickcam.ko
sudo cp quickcam.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/ubuntu/qc-usb/
modprobe -r quickcam
plug camera back into usb port
start cheese

“It’s time to stop trotting out the sheep jokes and the endless ribbing on the sports field and make our relationship more sophisticated”

“Isn’t Tasmania the butt of all the jokes over there? They’re just attacking us because they themselves are at the bottom of the pecking order back home.”

Hypocritical much?
