[Bug 255678] Re: GSPCA webcam no longer working: no /dev/video0

[skywriter]

I have tried to compile the driver gspca from source
(http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz).

First it reported the following: "asm/semaphore.h: No such file or directory''.
After reading this comment (http://www.linuxjournal.com/video/get-your-webcam-working-gspca#comment-341318) and applying the advice it reports the following:

In file included from /home/user/tmp/gspcav1-20071224/gspca_core.c:845:

Any suggestions? Is there any stable driver which produces device file /dev/video0?
