No. But you should need gspcav1 kernel module:

Install and load the module (or reboot).

How does one deal with this?
camE
can't load font arial/8
can't load font arial/8
can't load offline image /home/gilbertt/.block.jpg, ignoring
^^^ this is irrelevant, simply config issues with camE
open /dev/video0: No such file or directory
^^^ this would imply that either your camera isn't supported by the
kernel module or the module isn't loaded...or for some bizarre
reason it's on video1 or something.
Can you verify that the kernel module is loaded?
Should it show when I do lsmod?
That produces a long list but nothing I recognize as related to this.
Should do.
Open a terminal and do:
su -
tail -f /var/log/messages
Then in another terminal do:
modprobe gspca
and see what happens in the first one...it should detect your webcam
and create /dev/video0 - if it still doesn't, paste the output to us
here?
modprobe gspca
