Hi,

I have downloaded MLO, u-boot.img and uImage from http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/ and my BB boots okay. When I connect USB WEB camera with BB I get the following:

When I type: "lsmod" I get:

Now, I want to work with my own built and cross-compiled MLO, u-boot and uImage files.
I am able to make them but when i get them on BB, he doesn't detect WEB camera anymore. What should I do?

I have loaded following modules:

g_webcam.ko
uvcvideo.ko

Should I find those modules that are on prebuilt (demo) Angstrom?

Hardly anybody on this list uses the ancient angstrom image.

maybe update to a newer Debian image ?
