Compiling drivers for Microdia web cam

[Silvernail]

I am trying to install my microdia USB camera. It is reconize by lsusb. But I have no drivers for it.

I have downloaded the drivers and am trying to compile them. It been 15 years since I did any C programs so I'm lost when an error pops up. Heres the screen when I type make.

What am I missing and where do I find it.
Any information you have would be appreciated.

You should move this to a support forum... the cafe is really just for small talk.

That said, is there a readme with the source? It should have all the dependencies listed, make sure they are all installed.
