ubuntu 使用gspca安装摄像头

ubuntu 使用gspca安装摄像头 ubuntu version: 9.04 kernel version: 2.6.28-14-server gcc version:    4.3.3 gspca webcam drivers 是linux下摄像头支持的最广泛的一个驱动,  这是由一个法国医生( http://mxhaard.free.fr/)所设计编写的.不过从2007年底开始,已经不再维护, 最后一个版本为20071224. ubuntu中可以在通过apt-get install gspca-source安装代码, 不过此代码再2.6.26以上内核会 编译出错. 而从lwn.net( http://lwn.net/Articles/291054/)得知, 从2.6.26开始, gspca已经合并到内核中间, 名称为UVC(USB Video Class Linux device driver), 在driver/media/video/ gspca目录. 编译时只需勾选相关的模块即可. 如果想使用最新的 gspca代码可以从以下几个站点下载到: http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jfrancois/gspca/ http://linuxtv.org/hg/~eandren/gspca-m5602/ http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pinchartl/uvcvideo/ 建议下载最新的 gspca代码, 可能修正了最新的bug. # wget http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jfrancois/gspca/archive/tip.tar.bz2 -O gspca.tar.bz2 # tar -jxvf gspca.tar.bz2 # cd gspca-xxx # make menuconfig # 选择 编译选项 # make # make install 使用usb camera插入时即可自动加载模块, 可通过v4l-info命令查看/dev/video相关信息. # v4l-info 测试摄像头可用以下几个软件: webcam luvcview spcaview camorama 通过 aptitude install xxx 即可 示例: # lucview -d /dev/video0 -L 查询设备的相关信息 相关引用: http://lwn.net/Articles/291036/ http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=libv4l http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/4789.html http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterWebcamSupport#Documentation Linux UVC driver and tools QuickCam Team Drivers Linux USB Video Class (UVC) driver — by Martin Rubli SPCA webcam driver family — by Martin Rubli Philips USB webcam driver — by Martin Rubli QuickCam Messenger & Communicate driver — by Martin Rubli QuickCam USB camera driver — by Martin Rubli V4L2-compatible software luvcview — by Martin Rubli — Small video capture program ideal for webcam testing and problem debugging.
