 |
|
I have a Lenovo P71 laptop with an integrated 720p HD Camera with Microphone. However, the camera doesn't seem to be detected by the system, because when I open video capture software like Cheese, I just get the message "No device found."
I've tried enabling and disabling many items in my kernel's configuration under Device Drivers -> Multimedia Support, but I haven't gotten any results. Does anybody know where I should be investigating or how to solve this problem.
Here's some output that might be helpful:

quykfox,

Its a USB device, so we need lsusb output.
Wild guess, it needs UVC support in the kernel.

Here's some output from lsusb:
| Code: |
% lsusb

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub

Unfortunately, I'm not sure exactly how to utilize that information though. |

Well, it turned out that worked. I just needed to enable CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS under:
| Code: |
Device Drivers
-> Multimedia support (MEDIA_SUPPORT [=y])
-> Media USB Adapters (MEDIA_USB_SUPPORT [=y])
|
It didn't work before because I forgot to mount /boot before installing the new kernel...  |
