Hi,
I recently bought the new Logitech Quickcam Communicate web-camera. On searching the web I managed to find a driver for it to run on linux. The driver module had be compiled and loaded in a uhci or ohci supported kernel. Now all this is undertaken by a installation shell script which manages most of the stuff automatically. Everything was going great till a point there was an error during the driver compilation, the error was listed as
********************************************************************** WARNING: Symbol version dump /usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24/Module.symvers is missing, modules will have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS disabled.

Did you get any error messages above? If asking for help, show what error messages you got. WARNING: If you press Enter, I'll try to continue anyway, but this probably will fail. You SHOULD press Ctrl+C now. *********************************************************************
Could somebody please point out the defect for me to rectify. If there are any other modules which I need to manually enable then please do let me know as well. I am using SuSE Linux 9.2 Prof as my OS.
Thanks in advance rgds Sameer
