If you can't download or save the Windows support software:
- If the assistant says that the Windows support software could not be saved to the selected drive, or that the USB flash drive can't be used, make sure that your USB flash drive has a storage capacity of at least 16GB and is formatted correctly.
- If the assistant doesn't see your USB flash drive, click Go Back and make sure that the drive is connected directly to the USB port on your Mac—not to a display, hub, or keyboard. Disconnect and reconnect the drive, then click Continue.
- If the assistant says that it can't download the software because of a network problem, make sure that your Mac is connected to the Internet.
- Make sure that your Mac meets the system requirements to install Windows using Boot Camp.
If a Mac feature still doesn't work after updating the Windows support software, search for your symptom on the Apple support website or Microsoft support website. Some features of your Mac aren't designed to work in Windows.
2.1. Drivers and ModulesFor your webcam to work you will need support for the connection and support for the actual camera hardware. Those who are already versed in kernels and modules and how to load them should skip to Section 2.2, which addresses support of the connection type. If you know your USB, IEEE 1394 or whatever bus you will be connecting your camera to is already configured and working, you should move on to the list of specific webcam hardware listed in Section 2.3.
Webcam drivers are usually available one of three ways: within the kernel, as a compilable stand alone module, or available as a pre-compiled (packaged) binary driver from your Linux distribution.
2.1.1. Module or In-Kernel?As a rule, often the stock kernel, or working part of the operating system, of your initial installation may already have support for what you need. Your Linux distribution vendor has likely enabled the most common options already, including the bus, or connection type, and drivers for common camera models. The driver exists either as a loadable module or within the already running kernel.
An easy way to tell if the driver is enabled is to use the
..which may yield something like the following, depending on your hardware:
If you don't see it, the particular driver may exist as a loadable module. If you know what that module is named, try using
Note that up until the 2.4 series modules had the suffix
You can get a list of all modules available by typing the following at the command line:
Where
Once you know which module your camera needs you can find out if it is already loaded by typing the following at the command line:
As shown by the prompt above, you will need to have root privilegesto do this.You should get output similar to the following:
Most stock kernels are compiled with
Drivers for specific webcam models, or links to project pages hosting code for drivers, are outlined in Section 2.3. The drivers are usually available one of three ways: within the kernel, as a compilable stand alone module, or available as a pre-compiled binary from your Linux distribution.
If the support for your driver is not found either enabled statically within the kernel or as a module, don't despair. Drivers for numerous models are in the Linux kernel source (available directly from kernel.org source code repository), or in code offered separately from the kernel that can be configured to work with your current setup as oulined in Section 2.1.2. If your webcam driver is available in the kernel source but not enabled as a module or otherwise in your default system, you can either recompile the kernel from the source code you have or obtain a new version of the kernel source, either pre-packaged by your Linux distributor or directly from the previous link (as a so-called
You may find that your webcam is supported by only a kernel patch, by a source-only driver not requiring a kernel recompile, or you may even be lucky enough to have a distribution that makes a pre-compiled and packaged binary driver available for your computer's architecture. The procedure involved in the former is largely beyond the scope of this document and is probably best outlined in the documentation available on the web page of your particular model's driver found in Section 2.3. Some further more general documentation on these processes are, however, addressed in Section 5
2.2. Supporting the Connection Type2.2.1. USB WebcamsIf you have a USB webcam, it is likely a Linux driver has been written for your device.There are two ways of supporting USB devices in Linux.One is the more traditional kernel support, and the other is throughlibusb.For at least one webcam category, the STV0680-based models, working libusb support is recommended, at least according to the Sourceforge page on the subject.
Unless you know your driver requires libusb support, you should probably stick with the more conventional in-kernel support for USB devices beginning in Section 2.2.1.2.
2.2.1.1. LibusbLibusb is a library that allows access to the USB functions inLinux through userspace and without the need to enable kernel supportand insert modules. Most distributions, at this point, are offering libusb in their stablebranches (and some install it by default), so if you don't already havekernel support for USB devices, then you may only have to install thelibusb package in order to access your device.You must have USB device filesystem support enabled in your kernel,which most distributions do.To find out for sure, issue the following at the command line:
You should see (among others):
You may need to mount usbdevfs to enable it and see the devicefiles, which you can do at the command line with
You can obtain the libusb package in
Kernel support is required for USB webcam support if not usinglibusb (outlined above).
For 2.2 and 2.4 series kernels, your USB webcam may require the module
For generic USB bus support in Linux, you will need USB subsystemsupport in your kernel, whether usb-ohci, usb-ehci, or whatever flavorof USB driver your system prefers.USB subsystem support has been present in the Linux kernel since thelate 2.2 series.For a more in-depth discussion of USB support in general, I direct you tothe Linux-usb project site.If you want to find out which modules are loaded, at the command lineor in an xterm, type the following:
As shown by the prompt above, you will need to have root privilegesto do this.You should get output similar to the following:
If you don't have the particular module you're seeking loaded andyou think the module may be available, try loadingit directly (using the usb ibmcam module as an example):
..at which point you should see something like thefollowing:
By placing the entry
IEEE 1394 webcams require an IEEE 1394 PCI card or an IEEE 1394bus port on your mainboard.The IEEE interface has been supported in Linux since the early 2.4-serieskernel.If you are lucky enough to own such a device, generic informationon support of the IEEE 1394 bus in Linux can be found at www.linux1394.org.If you have a kernel older than 2.4.2, you will need topatch your kernel with one of the patches found on this pagematched to your kernel version.In addition, you will require libraw1394.The previously referenced linux1394.org site has a great installationguide.
The IEEE1394Digital Camera List, by Damien Douxchamps, offers an outstandingsummary of the capabilities of IEEE 1394 cameras as well as the currentstatus of support for individual models.
2.2.3. Generic Parallel Port Support for Parport Webcams For 2.2 and 2.4 kernel systems, parallel-port support must beenabled statically or as a module (stock kernels usually have thisenabled by default).You may want to read moregeneric info about parallel-port device support under the Linuxkernel before starting this process.To find out for sure if the module
If you are compiling your own kernel, enable 'Parallel Portsupport'.You should enable 'IEEE 1284 transfer modes', and if you have x86 typearchitecture, you should also enable 'PC-style hardware'.
If modprobe returns an error when you attempt to load the module,note that you may need to determine and supply the hardware address wheninvoking
WARNING: Be sure you have the correct address beforeentering this information at the command line or else your machine maybecome unstable, crash or otherwise implode.
Your parallel port should be set to preferably
Note that this information is frequently changing.The Linux-USBDevice Overview site is a great place to look if you have aUSB webcam.Also, you will want to check for your model's homepage at http://www.exploits.org/v4l/.The information compiled below on specific webcam models is from thesame source, so you may find more up-to-date information through theprevious link.If you can't find an entry for your particular hardware, you can findlinks to resources on how to write your own driver!
It is important to note that if your camera isn't listed,the easiest way to find out if your camera is supported is to find outwhat chipset is used in its manufacture.
This information is usually present in the specifications published inyour webcam's manual or on the manufacturer's website.
If you can't find your camera model listedand aren't sure what chipset your camera is made with,you should consider searching and/or subscribing to thevideo4linux-list mailing list hosted by Redhat.
