Webcam is not detected on Dell Precision 5490 running AlmaLinux

[sm62hi]

Hello, my webcam is not detected on my Dell Precision 5490 laptop running Redhat 9 (AlmaLinux). I tried to compile the ipu6 driver without success.
Have you ever tried to make this camera work under Redhat ? how to make this camera work ?
Thanks in advance,
best regards.

It is a mess. It used to work with earlier kernel versions. Then they changed something and as of kernel 6.13 it's not working anymore. Try running "sudo dmesg | grep -i ipu6" and "sudo dmesg | grep -i vsc". Then look for errors. For example:

Hello, thank you for your reply. I have reinstalled Ubuntu and will be using a podman container for AlmaLinux. I'm sorry but I can't run the greps commands anymore. Thanks a lot. Best regards
