[Spca50x-devs] Problem with my X10 Cameras and the Spca5xx driver

Sorry for the another email. I've pressed Enter and i didn't finish the email

Hi all

I'm writing cuz i have a problem with my X10 Cameras. I
downloaded the last version of spca5xx driver
(spca5xx-20060501.tar.gz). I have Fedora Core 5 with kernel
2.6.15-1.2054_FC5. I've unpacked the tar.gz and then did these steps:

$> make clean
$> make

When i did make, appeared this error:
/root/Desktop/spca5xx-20060501/drivers/usb/spca5xx.c:5643: error: unknown field 'owner' specified in initializer
/root/Desktop/spca5xx-20060501/drivers/usb/spca5xx.c:5643: aviso: inicialización desde un tipo de puntero incompatible

I commented the line and no problem with the compilation.

$> make install

Without problem.

After these steps i did:

$> modprobe spca5xx usbgrabber=1
$> modprobe videodev

The result of lsmod | grep spca is: 

spca5xx               643536  0
videodev                9409  1 spca5xx

When i did lsusb it detected the Video Receiver of my cameras:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0bc7:0002 X10 Wireless Technology, Inc.
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04fa:2490 Dallas Semiconductor DS1490F 2-in-1 Fob, 1-Wire adapter

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

And the result of dmesg | grep spca is:

/root/Desktop/spca5xx-20060501/drivers/usb/spca5xx.c: USB SPCA5XX camera found. Type Intel PC Camera Pro (SPCA505)

usbcore: registered new driver spca5xx

In all the web pages i've checked said that the results of all the steps i've already did, finish in the good installation of the cameras. 

I've used two video viewer (spcaview and motion) 

$> spcaview -d /dev/video0 -f jpeg 
$> motion

and i only get a black image. I would like to know which can be the
problem. I have two days trying to fix this but i still get black image.

I'll appreciate your help.
Thanks
Andrey
