You know, new distribution, new problems (like the one we solved in the previous post)
Well with the new layout, added more nosequants drivers for many webcams. The case is that my webcam Hercules Deluxe has been out quite bad stop, as the system loads the webcam to plug some modules that use the camera in question.
After I carefully read the information webcam module (driver by selling proprietary system that does not call here). I got the webcam to work again, and I ran the Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex. Eus are the steps I have done.
0) PRELIMINARY
Verify that your operating system detects the webcam. We will do this using a program like the one described in section 5).
But the supports, type with the webcam connected to your computer the following order
lsusb
I check on this website if the result gives (something like 05a9: 4519 OmniVision Technologies, Inc.) is supported. If this is the case he continues to in paragraph 1 of this tutorial. If it is the case, do a google search with the result that you obtained and followed by the word ubuntu linux or to find how to do the work.
1) Verify that the system loads other modules:
Plug the camera
lsmod | grep ov
If you get a result like this is that the system loads some other modules to load instead of what we want to install (ov51x-jpeg)
gspca_ov519 23812 0
gspca_main 29312 1 gspca_ov519
usbcore 148848 8 snd_usb_audio,snd_usb_lib,gspca_ov519,gspca_main,usbhid,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd
2) Ensure the load module that we do not want to load
2.1) This option is what we recommend. If you had any problems try paragraph 2.2, in that instead of preventing the load module that is done is removed.
In a terminal write
echo -e "# replaced by ov51x_jpeg\nblacklist gspca_ov519" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
Now we have to unplug the camera and plug it in again and see if it does not load the mòdulgspca_ov519. This check the draw as specified in paragraph 1.
2.2) If the previous step will not work and we still loads modules unwanted have the option to use brute force to remove the form and we do not want to load
Thus, other gspca_ov519 the form (we do what it says in English and Unload)
rmmod gspca_ov519
So look where you want to remove the modules of the system
find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name '*ov5*'
And kept in a folder named 'backup.modules.webcams' to be removed later if the user so chooses
mkdir ~/backup.modules.webcams
mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/ubuntu/misc/media/ov511 ~/backup.modules.webcams
mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/video/gspca/ ~/backup.modules.webcams
3) We can now compile the new module ov51x-jpeg
Create the directory to perform the compilation
mkdir ~/hercules
cd ~/hercules
Download the source and decompress
wget http://www.rastageeks.org/downloads/ov51x-jpeg/ov51x-jpeg-1.5.9.tar.gz
tar -xvf ov51x-jpeg-1.5.9.tar.gz
cd ov51x-jpeg-1.5.9
Compile the program
make
sudo make install
Install the corresponding module
sudo depmod -A
sudo modprobe ov51x-jpeg
We clean: remove the directory
rm -r ~/hercules
4) Because the webcam works with Skype write the following parameter
echo "options ov51x-jpeg forceblock=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/options
5) Optionally to prove that the modulus of the webcam is correctly installed can install a program like wxcam we can get off with the dev package from here.
6) Notes
We should mention that sometimes fails and the form is completely green or black. To address this issue in sufficient unplug the webcam and re-plug in (plug and unplug).
In addition to this, if we have not worked previously and we used the method of plugging / unplugging the webcam, you should restart Skype to work.
You must also commented that normally, when you upgrade to a new kernel, the module installed jpeg-0v51x stops working and must repeat the process again.
Still does not work for me! Driver is installed, but no / dev/video0 was created. So Skype lets me choose: OV519 USB Camera (dev/video0) but the picture stays black.
lsusb:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 05a9: 4519 OmniVision Technologies, Inc..
go!
maybe you should try to plug and unplug it again (do it so many times as needed) and then restart skype. Then it should work.
TRY BEFORE YOU skype'd recommend you to try to view yourself with a program like cheese or wxcam (http://wxcam.sourceforge.net/) (i like a lot wxcam)
Hope it helps!
I used the same camera for a trust?
thanks
pulling hi, see if your webcam is in this list
http://www.rastageeks.org/ov51x-jpeg/index.php/Working_Webcams
if there is, you will (it is explained in section 0 of the tutorial)

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS YOU CAN ASK here. English is understood Fortunatelly
Antes de nada, gracias por las molestias've publicado of the tutorial. Can not get install the Hercules Webcam, intentando pero estoy aprendiendo bastante dispositivos install them from operating on Linux (except for 2 weeks with him, well that still holds quite limp).
Let's See If You Can ECHARME cable, Uncle ... Before the instalarle módulos ov51x_jpeg and delete them to bring in for defects, many of the programs that access the podían tengo webcam (lsusb if a remote control, hence La Tengo with the same product ID and Vendor ID), but with the image of the peculiaridad saline intercaladas with gray lines (in aMSN, or in other podían smell), which probe well recommended to install the module.
Resumiendo:
Gspca_ov519 module also had similar number of others, but they also remove them, only the recommended quedándome (Mandanda a lsmod the ov51x_jpeg is present and is in utilizando "videodev" and "usbcore", but nobody uses it to him lol ( that suena raro xD).
- What SHOULD do well to check that everything is installed and detected?
- ¿Maybe detection in beech influenced by the amenities've eliminated the fear módulos defects?
Thanks in advance, William.
A greeting.
Por cierto, ya is not necessary. I installed the 8:04 conseguido sin and I perceived one that runs the webcam decentemente.
Joseka Hi, I am glad that now solucionado Hague. The truth that lei tu comentario y me parecio muy liado. I think that your problem is due to the program so that outside actualizaron compliant versions of the brand new Core linux and not preocuparon maintain retrocompativilidad with the other versions.
If tienes algún otro problem do not hesitate to contact us.
A greeting!
They say the website's development driver, it seems that the driver support is broken.
Therefore advised that everyone wants to have the webcam running the installation of any kernel higher than 2.6.27.
But if you decide to install the kernel 2.6.29 you, here describes a patch to make the webcam work.
I have a Hercules Deluxe camera and I followed the steps to install Ubuntu 9:10, but I could not have happened because "make" tells me
