[sclug] USB Hardware on Fedora 9 Gnome frontend

[Bixby, Jamie]

I have recently dived back into Fedora and had to take a roundabout way
to get Fedora 9 running due to issue with it and my Nvidia graphics
card.  Most things are functioning now although I cannot get it to
recognize my Microsoft VX3000 Live webcam or my O2 XDA Orbit mobile.

This is what I find when running lsusb

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 07ab:fcdb Freecom Technologies
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0d8c:0201 C-Media Electronics, Inc. CM6501
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 045e:00f5 Microsoft Corp. LifeCam VX-3000.
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I have completed these steps to get it to recognize the webcam.

I have tried removing and rebooting then plugging in the hardware.

I have checked on some forums and it was mentioned a gspcav1.

Information on it can be found here:

and here

But I cannot get it to work still. IT detects the camera perfectly but I
cannot get a program to recognize that it is there.

I have also moved the camera around to different USB ports, there are a
few empty ones on the box but no luck, I have even removed USB devices
that are working to try that port just in case (you never know) but
still getting no further ahead.

Biggest issue is that apps like Skype recognize the mic on the webcam
but not the webcam itself.

Any help or direction to look in would be greatly appreciated.  The
documentation with gspcav1 is not that good so I may have fubar'd that.
