Most of you know I have been using a Logitech 3000 Pro webcam with my Linux system for quite a while. Most of you also know with the 2.6 kernel the pwc module is now maintained at http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/ Probably the biggest change is there is no longer a separate pwcx module. The pwc.ko module is capable of the large picture by itself. Now the question: I've been happily running my cam for a few months, since I first set up my SuSE 9.2 system. My module is located at /lib/modules/2.6.8-24.14-default/kernel/drivers/usb/media/pwc.ko, where it has worked fine for months. To load the module I type modprobe pwc. Suddenly yesterday for no apparent reason this command gave me: FATAL: Module pwc not found. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? I looked all over Google for an explanation, and did not find one. How is it "not found" when it is sitting right there in the same place it has been all along? I recopied pwc.ko. No difference. I plugged and unplugged the cam in different ports, no difference. I booted the computer with the cam plugged in as well as plugging in the cam after booting, all to no avail. Finally I got the idea to do insmod pwc.ko and it loads, but the command only works when I am in the /lib/modules/2.6.8-24.14-default/kernel/drivers/usb/media/ directory. The cam works again. I rmmodded and insmodded a few times to be sure. My question is what caused this change? Why is it "found" with insmod but not modprobe? Why must I be in the directory for insmod to work? (Even in the directory, modprobe gives the "FATAL" message.) Thank you.
