Hi everyone,

I've googled around a bit, asked on my distro forum but I can't seem to find
any current answers to this message.
I am using a cam that is supported and worked under Fedora 7 distro - I
switched to a Slackware distro (Vector Linux) and the camera doesnt work.
I've compiled from source without errors (all kernel headers etc installed)
the gpspca12242007 for latest kernel, and can see the module loaded and v4l
stuff in there.  But when I check in Kopete I get the lovely green screen
when i test the cam and the error message: video device /dev/video0 - wrong
device  when running spcagui.

What are the things I should check to resolve this error message - what are
the usual causes?

Many thanks in advance,

Steve
