hi all! i've a little problem installing qc-usb. this is the extract of the emerge's report: >>> Source compiled. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: media-video/qc-usb-0.6.3 >>> Install qc-usb-0.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/qc-usb-0.6.3/image/ category media-video install: impossibile fare stat di `quickcam.': No such file or directory >>> Completed installing qc-usb-0.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/qc-usb-0.6.3/image/ src_install is this: src_install() { insinto /lib/modules/${KV}/drivers/usb doins quickcam.${KV_OBJ} dobin qcset dodoc README* APPLICATIONS COPYING CREDITS TODO FAQ insinto /usr/share/doc/${PF} doins quickcam.sh debug.sh freeshm.sh } well, ${KV_OBJ} seems to be not defined. i tried to find workaround, in this way "doins quickcam.o" it puts quickcam.o in /lib64/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r3/drivers/usb/ but modprobe quickcam returns FATAL: Module quickcam not found. if i change the ebuild in "doins quickcam.so" src_install returns: >>> Install qc-usb-0.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/qc-usb-0.6.3/image/ category media-video install: impossibile fare stat di `quickcam.so': No such file or directory >>> Completed installing qc-usb-0.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/qc-usb-0.6.3/image/ i hope this is useful for you. best regards Fabio Ticconi

now i tried with quickcam.ko obviously it works... i think ${KV_OBJ} should be the exstention "ko"...but strangely, it seems not defined...i don't know, but i'm pasting you my emerge --info if it's useful for you...
