Ummu, I can tell you that the driver installs on my fresh ubuntu 9.10
laptop. When i say 'fresh' it has been updated per the usual ubuntu
updates but no out of repository v4l drivers etc.

I can't tell you whether it actually works as I don't have the device.
However the module h826d inserts in the kernel without any error
message:

I am on a 386 system so downloaded
C038A827H826_Installer_x86_0.10-Beta_091126.zip and unzipped it. I
then ran the instruction as per the INSTALL.txt file.

There is no make install phase, it is all done by the install script,
which has the binary blob embedded.
