Get logitech camera support to beagle board - Angstrom OS

Hello All,
I am new beagle board...I have downloaded the resp. MLO,U-boot-bin &
rest of the binaries on beagle board through a SD card. The board
booted well with Angstrom OS. I tried connecting Logitech Camera to it
using USB host port. But, After boot up i dont find any driver getting
loaded for it, as well as i dont find any entry in video capture list
i.e /dev/video1...for the digital camera connected as such..
Please, let me know how do I proceed to add Logitech camera support to
Angstrom OS i.e. the beagle board.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Amol Borawake

Hello,
thanks for giving me reply.....
I have gone thr those links ...but actully when i connect logitech
camera to board on usb host port
its giving me this error :
hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2

and no usb camera detected log is present.
I hope it requires some drivers viz.uvcvideo on your machine....but
those are not present on my linux.
From where i can get this drivers & how do i install on angstrom os.
thanks again....

thanks,

Hello Amol,
   I have tested my webcams (non uvc) Logitech /Cool with kernel
2.6.29.
If you get 2.6.29 from
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/
Pick up the stable, MLO, uImage and
modules-2.6.29-r47-beagleboard.tgz
first tar the stable to the ext2 partition and after tar the modules.
    If you are running 2.6.28 there is little download support.

Hello Amol, I have been trying to keep this discussion on the list
so that others might use the information. Yes you need a powered usb
2.0 hub between the BB and your camera. The webcams draw a lot
of power.

Hi,
I tested my Logitech Cool camera on the Beagle Board, By including the USH 2.0 High speed HUB between board and camera. Because, Host support only HS , not FS and LS.

After that lsusb display the camera Vendor ID and Product ID.

with regards,
