Bug 151254 – gspcav1-20060925 crashes system upon opening my camera.(logitech quickcam IM )

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description codyzapp 2006-10-13 19:58:22 UTC]

After Emerge -C spca5xx and emerging gspcav1, I try to view my camera and it crashes my system.(by crash i mean completly freeze, i have to press the power button to shut it off) This happened with the spca5xx driver so im wondering if i just need to switch to gcc3 and recompile my kernel? Also notice my lsmod attachment. I see that the spca5xx driver is still listed in video_dev.

(below is my emerge --info)
