But trying to run cheese, and it doesn't run.
I try to do this:

but it netwalker on this step:

sudo cp sn9c20x.ko /lib/modules/$(uname
> -r)/kernel/drivers/media/video/usbvideo/

response this:

root@masanasj:~/microdia# sudo cp
> sn9c20x.ko /lib/modules/$(uname
> -r)/kernel/drivers/media/video/usbvideo/
>
> cp: no se puede crear el fichero regular
> «/lib/modules/2.6.28-15-araneo/kernel/drivers/media/video/usbvideo/»: No
> existe el fichero ó directorio
>
>
> root@masanasj:~/microdia#

Does the directory you are trying to copy the file to exist? If not you have to create it first.

I do not want to crate, because  behind to kernel?
With what consecuences?
where is beter to create?
In the sentences of the howto, i need to create a directory?

You have to create this directory and copy the module in there. This won't do anything to the kernel. The howto shows how to do it. Just follow all the steps and it should work.
