Hi
After aMSN webcam session is closed I can't use webcam anymore without
closing aMSN first. Bug is also blocking webcam from other programs
(ekiga, camorama,...).
$ fuser -v /dev/video0
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/video0 user 4070 ....m wish
aMSN developers claim problem is in pwc driver. Do you agree? If you do,
is there anything we can do about it?

Kakaroto says: "it only happens with amsn because we use a method of
fetching the images that is optimized, faster and more efficient that
your driver supports but seems to have a bug when it's used."
Regards,
Antti
