hello again.<br><br>So I have fc11 now and have the same problem as martin...<br><br>I am attaching pictures of how it looks in cheese and in gem. the fact that it looks ok in cheese means that the driver is working correctly, but gem can't get it right. I also installed libv4l-devel and recompiled gem...<br>
<br>this is the end of my ./configure, perhaps it is an issue of v4l and v4l2?<br><br> image-support<br> use ImageMagick : no<br> use TIFF : yes<br> use JPEG : yes<br> video-support<br>
use mpeg : no<br> use mpeg-3 : no<br> use QuickTime : no<br> use aviplay : no<br> use ffmpeg : no<br> input-support<br> use v4l : yes<br> use ieee1394 : no<br>
<br>any suggestions? <br><br>I am running gem-0.91-3 and pd-0.42-3 on x86_64 with fc11.<br><br>best,<br><br>J<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 11:00 AM, IOhannes m zmoelnig <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:zmoelnig@iem.at">zmoelnig@iem.at</a>></span> wrote:<br>

FC8 is end of life, and never had libv4l, may I suggest<br>
upgrading to a newer Fedora?<br>

So first, do you think it is actually possible?<br>

i really don't know.<br>
but usually things are lot easier than one would expect...<div class="im"><br>

On the other hand, I have no problem attempting to compile it, but I am not<br>
familiar with the logic behind devel libraries, what would be the source I<br>
would need to compile from? I had thought all this time that devel libraries<br>
were essentially headers and the like and didn't require compilation....<br>

yes, but there are no devel-packages for fc8, are there?<br>
<br>
so: libXXX and libXXX-devel packages are built from "sources"<br>
your distro might provide these sources as a source-package (e.g. libXXX.rpms) or not; but the original authors might/will provide their sources as well.<br>
e.g. you can get libv4l from hans's site, e.g. <a href="http://people.atrpms.net/%7Ehdegoede/libv4l-0.5.9.tar.gz" target="_blank">http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/libv4l-0.5.9.tar.gz</a><br>
<br>
grab this package; untar it; read the README.txt/INSTALL.txt or whatever doc applies);<br>
then do something like<br>
% ./configure<br>
% make<br>
# make install<br>
<br>
and you should have libv4l installed into /usr/local/, effectively bypassing your package-manager.<br>
<br>
you might need to install other packages in order for this to work, but i am not familiar with fc (and even less with fc8).<br>
you might be totally out of luck, and it won't build for your distro/version. in this case you might have to upgrade to a newer fc.<br>
<br>
but you might as well have luck and it works...<br>
