Yes, I think it's okey to make it. But don't know if kernel supports that device interface. (V4L) But I guess they provide support for that.

I mean if linux configuration allows that. You needed to include support for V4L or V4L2 interfaces to use those modules. If it's not, we needed to use new kernel.

It's perfectly normal for me. You needed to compile your linux drivers and install to TV before connecting your Web Cam.
