The pwcx author recently closed his site because the kernel guys decided to kick out the pwc module because they don't want to support non open source software directly with the Linux kernel.

If not, it is sure I don't have it installed. No, it is not and never was. You need to get the last pwcx tarball and compile the module into your kernel. The pwc.ko module comes with the latest FC2 kernel. The steps are described in the README coming with the pwcx tarball. > Daniel Rodríguez Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG key 1024D/ED695653 1999-07-13 Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) kernel 2.6.8-1.521smp Serendipity 01:18:21 up 1 day, 3:44, load average: 0.46, 0.52, 0.47
