cmos camera for mini2440

Hey,
I got the mini2440 with a camera. This works fine with Qtopia.
The driver is ov9650 made up of: s3c2440camif, s3c2440_ov9650, sccb and another couple of files.
I then ported it over to Openembedded and it also works fine.

Finally I passed to lenny bootstrap and recompiled the kernel and module myself.
I end up with s3c2440camera.ko which inserts (with insmod) fine and gives

Loading OV9650 driver.........
SCCB address 0x60, manufacture ID 0x7FA2, expect 0x7FA2
SCCB address 0x60, product ID 0x9652, expect 0x9650
ov9650 init done

Which is perfect. The problem is that in every other os the module creates /dev/camera but in lenny it doesn't!
I'm really confused. I tried creating the device manually with mknod but there are no major and minor numbers associated with this device in /sys/dev/char or /proc/devices
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Paul
