Quickcam Pro 4000 works out of the box in SuSE 9.1. I didn't have to do anything special.
did you by any chance do an upgrade from 9.0, and somehow manage not to upgrade the kernel to 2.6?
The PWC modules from www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/ are in the kernel already. Also in the generic kernels.
not in 9.1, they're marked as BROKEN in the kernel config.
So check first your installation, if it works fine with the PWC coming with SuSE.
