you need to patch the affected lines in this way:

#include <linux/version.h>
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE <= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,18)
#include <linux/config.h>
#endif

Comment 11 David Carlos Manuelda 2007-01-08 00:35:26 UTC
Is there the needed patch in the tree? I can't still emerge spca5xx properly (same error). Maybe putting a -r3 ?
Comment 12 Natanael Copa 2007-01-08 20:52:35 UTC
i can confirm the patch works. I'm using it right now.

Linux nc 2.6.19-gentoo-r2 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Dec 17 00:24:24 CET 2006 x86_64 Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Would be nice if it could get committed

Thanks!

Comment 14 Mike Doty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-20 06:59:38 UTC
you should move to media-video/gspcav1.  spca5xx is no longer developed upstream.

gspca will go stable on all arches when I return from europe in march.  then I can p.mask spca5xx.

media-video/gspca-01.00.10 and media-video/spca5xx are deprecated in favor to media-video/gspcav1-20070110 that is currently supported by upstream and works fine with recent kernels.

Thanks a lot :-)

Why should gspca be used? It's, in comparison with gspcav1, older. I was under the impression that we got this straing in bug #159125 and bug #159126, ie. gspca should not be used and gspcav1 should be used instead. Mike also said that gspcav1 shouldn't have been masked.

Will you really declare gspca stable (ie. NOT the upstream name of gspcav1)?

And when will you return?

Anyway - it would be nice if gspca could be hard masked and gspcav1 unmasked until then, to have a working package. Thanks!

Comment 30 Chen Xing 2007-05-04 15:49:05 UTC
It seems that according to the summary, gspcav1 should be unmasked. But when I am emerging, it says:

# emerge gspcav1
Calculating dependencies \
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "gspcav1" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- media-video/gspcav1-20070110 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
- media-video/gspcav1-20060925 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or 
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

----------------------
The newest version of gspcav1 seems to be 20070426

unmasked != stable...

=media-video/gspcav1-20071224 works fine on 2.6.25-gentoo-r4 on x86.
Comment 39 Renato Caldas 2008-10-18 14:12:56 UTC
The gspcav1 module will soon be deprecated in favor of the in-kernel driver (in kernel 2.6.27). Just so that you know.
Comment 40 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2008-10-26 13:53:48 UTC
Mike, please, drop spca5xx and gspca as gspcav1 replaces them 

Thanks :-)

I don't think that'll happen really soon. 2.6.27's gspca doesn't work with my webcam, where last gspcav1 did.

It should work. The problem is that most apps don't yet support it. Google around for libv4l.
Comment 43 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2009-02-05 10:47:56 UTC
Please drop gspca and spca5xx

Thanks
Comment 44 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2009-05-12 20:58:57 UTC
I think that would be even better mask also gspcav1 and try to drop all *spca* drivers soon as current gspcav2 kernel driver should replace all of them. Should I open a new bug report for it?
Comment 45 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2009-09-14 08:21:13 UTC
Any news on this? Thanks :-)
Comment 46 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2009-09-28 15:14:58 UTC
Treecleaners, can you please take a look on this? In summary, all these drivers should be dropped, as kernel already supports that cameras:
media-video/gspca
media-video/gspcav1
media-video/spca5xx

Thanks
