Found solution for UVC Quanta 0408:4033 camera PROBLEM Ubuntu 23

_Found solution for UVC Quanta 0408:4033 camera PROBLEM Ubuntu 23 for the users Who are buying laptop Acer Aspire A715-51G and installed Ubuntu _

Go to your home directory and follow steps

I finaly compile https:/ on ubuntu 23.04
Simply by:
git checkout HEAD~1 (first commit for 6.2 kernel, last for 6.3 kernel)
make
sudo rmmod uvcvideo
sudo insmod ./uvcvideo.ko
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

if you found error like this

The kernel was built by: x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.2.0-17ubuntu1) 12.2.0
You are using: gcc-12 (Ubuntu 12.2.0-17ubuntu1) 12.2.0
CC [M] /home/raj/uvc/uvc_driver.o
/home/raj/uvc/uvc_driver.c:17:10: fatal error: linux/usb/uvc.h: No such file or directory
17 | #include <linux/usb/uvc.h>
 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Then follow below steps again

sudo apt-get install build-essential
git clone git clone  https://github.com/Kvalme/uvc.git
cd ./uvc/
git checkout 5ea688c
make
sudo rmmod uvcvideo
sudo insmod ./uvcvideo.ko

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Now camera will work but if you reboot and again not working then run below command’s

sudo cp /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvcvideo.ko{,.back}

sudo cp ~/uvc/uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvcvideo.ko

sudo reboot
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Please share or comment if you like may this can help to buy external webcam for the ubuntu users who are using this webcam
