That helped alot.  Thanks.  Now for my next problem :)  I got 1.0 of the
cpia module and when i insmod the cpia.o and cpia_pp.o it works like very
well according to dmesg:
<-snip->
V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.0.0
Parallel port driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v1.0.0
  using DMA mode (irq 7, DMA 3)

  1 camera(s) found

Everything looks great, now i compiled gqcam (the version that came with
the module) and attempted to run it.  I got "/dev/video: No such
device".  I had originally made my devices with /dev/MAKEDEV video but
then I read the gqcam docs and just remade them all exactly as they said
with still no luck.  Any ideas are greatly appreciated (again) and i
apoligize for my inconvience in advance.
