Please open a terminal and run the following commands as root (you need to use the "su" command in order to became root)
cd /usr/lib/libDrakX
patch  -p2 < /tmp/12128.diff

Then try again harddrake in MCC

With Mageia 4 :

[root@localhost ~]# cd /usr/lib/libDrakX
[root@localhost libDrakX]# patch  -p2 < /tmp/12128.diff
-bash: /tmp/12128.diff: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
[root@localhost libDrakX]#
Comment 4 Bernard SIAUD 2013-12-29 13:49:10 CET
How have can I find the file /tmp/12128.diff .
With Mageia 3, I have the same problem.
Comment 5 Thierry Vignaud 2013-12-29 13:58:19 CET
I forgot to replace
  patch -p2 < /tmp/12128.diff
By:
  patch -p2 < /where/you/downloaded/it/12128.diff

You've to put the right path (eg: /home/<your_login>/Downloads for english users or /home/<your_login>/Téléchargements for french users...)
Comment 6 Bernard SIAUD 2013-12-29 14:17:37 CET
I havn't see the attachement ! Sorry...

It's not besser... With mga3 or mg 4.
Comment 7 Thierry Vignaud 2013-12-29 18:12:17 CET
What I find strange is that lspcidrake reports the driver to be "uvcvideo" but harddrake reports "kbd" whereas both use libldetect...
Its media_type also contains "Video|Video Control" which we match webcams on.
Comment 8 Nic Baxter 2015-03-31 03:00:26 CEST
Is this still current?

Comment 9 Thierry Vignaud 2015-05-15 16:47:27 CEST
I think that should be OK as of Mga5 RC + update to drakxtools-*/harddrake-ui 16.92-1.mga5 or later
