I install liveCD 1.21,than install kernel 2.6.11 as described in post about philips vesta webcam on this forum.
then after edit mkzmcd file i have this error:
Creating initrd: [ 59.72% 00:00:03/00:00:05]DIE gzip -dc /lib/modules/2.6.11-9mdk/kernel/fs/isofs/isofs.ko.gz >/home/use ...
FATAL: unable to find kernel module 'cdrom'
what i do?
thanks Michele.
Make custom liveCD error:help Me :)
I believe the 2.6.11 Mandrake kernel has cdrom support compiled in rather than using a module. So there is some incompatability with the version of mklivecd that is on the livecd.
I will compile updated rpms for mklivecd and livecd utils and post a link when I get a little time. But you should be aware that you will find other issues when running the 2.6.11 kernel on Mandrake 10.1. At least one that I am aware of is that CD burning will break. Fixing it will require rebuilding cdrecord at least.
A simpler solution may be to build the camera driver you need for the tmb kernel used on the livecd. I'll take a look at this option too when I get a few minutes.
Best regards,
Ross

OK the "philips vesta pro" is supported by the pwc module. Another user pointed out that the pwc module on the livecd is somewhat crippled.
I have compiled a new driver for the Philips webcam with the extension module to get full resolution. I don't have one of these cameras so it has not been tested. But I expect it will work as advertized.
You can get it here:
http://www.elltel.net/melins/mdk_10.1/D ... c_mods.tgz
Just inzip it and follow the instructions in the README.
If you want the modules to always load at bootup add them to /etc/modprobe.preload
Then you can remake the livecd and you will have full support for your camera.
I will look onto the matrox TV out thing when I get some time.

Ross
