Kernel header package is installed.

root@dalton:/usr/src# ls
linux-headers-3.2.0-4-686-pae linux-kbuild-3.2 vloopback.tar
linux-headers-3.2.0-4-common modules

vloopback-source is installed.

root@dalton:/usr/src# cd modules/vloopback
root@dalton:/usr/src/modules/vloopback# ls
debian Makefile vloopback.c

According to /usr/share/doc/vloopback-source/README.Debian .

root@dalton:/usr/src/modules/vloopback# module-assistant build ./vloopback.c
./vloopback.c, what is ./vloopback.c?

Does anyone recognize what is missing?

Thanks, ... Peter E.

I think you need to type "module-assistant build vloopback" instead.

Thanks Selim.

These turned up.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=629369
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=660589

So my sketchy understanding is that vloopback won't
surface again until it is updated from v4l1 to v4l2.

Implying that an application which requires v4l to
use the output from a IEEE 1394, Firewire, camera
won't receive that output again until vloopback is
updated from v4l1 to v4l2.

A possibility for the intrepid is to compile a
contemporary kernel with v4l1 ... but further
difficulty might happen.

Thanks for the tip, ... Peter E.
