I have Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 64 bit. Camorama installed via Synaptic. Installed:

ov51x-jpeg-source

and I tryed to install with these command line:
cd /usr/src
sudo tar xjvf ov51x-jpeg.tar.bz2
cd modules/ov51x-jpeg/
sudo make
sudo make install

but impossible to charge in the kernel and therefore with these error:

giancarlo@giancarlo-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install ov51x-jpeg-source

Gentlemen,

I solved this question with the suggestion of Mr. Alessio Treglia of Ubuntu Launchpad
with this link:

http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/Maxiride/Prove0

Thanks and best regards.

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

Vanekmax, I can't reproduce the build issue in Intreprid. Can you describe the steps you've followed to get this error. Thanks

Vanekmax,

On the computer on which you're experiencing this error can you please provide the followinginformation:
* The output of the command : lsb_release -rd
* The output of the command : uname -a
* The output of the command : dpkg -l "linux-headers-*"|grep "^ii"
* The output of the command : apt-cache policy ov51x-jpeg-source
* Can you build the module with the command : sudo m-a build -f -t ov51x-jpeg 2>&1 | tee /tmp/build-ov51x-jpeg.log
and attach the file /tmp/build-ov51x-jpeg.log

This will greatly help us to track down your problem. Thanks in advance.
