I recently bought a logitech quickcam on sale, to plug it into my suse 10.2 workstation and try to get it going. When I plug the camera in, it seems to be recognized by the kernel, as seen in the log messages below. usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 2-2: new device found, idVendor=046d, idProduct=092e usb 2-2: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 usb 2-2: Product: Camera usb 2-2: Manufacturer: usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Linux video capture interface: v2.00 drivers/media/video/usbvideo/quickcam_messenger.c: Logitech Quickcam Messenger USB v0.01 usbcore: registered new driver QCM Looks good, right? Well, the problem is that there is no /dev/video*, so there is no way to access the camera. How do we fix this egregious situation? In the old days, we'd simply issue a makedev command and be good to go. So, how to coax udev into creating the needed device?
