Hello folks,

Trying to install the quickcam.ko module on a etch system:

marvin:/home/testermike# insmod /usr/local/src/qc-usb-0.6.5/quickcam.ko
insmod: error inserting '/usr/local/src/qc-usb-0.6.5/quickcam.ko': -1
Invalid module format
marvin:/home/testermike#

want to use a quick cam express but although the camera is detected on
boot:

marvin:/home/testermike# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:0840 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Mouse
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
marvin:/home/testermike#

the webcam module doesn't load and all the other video type modes are
assigned to the tv card thats installed:
