Hi,

I'm having some problems reading from /dev/video0 when using my Logitech
QuickCam Orbit MP camera.  I'm using an ubuntu 2.6.15-28-386 kernel.

At module insertion time, with trace set to 15, I see the following in
dmesg:

As far as I can tell the above looks correct, and once plugged in the
/dev/video0 device is created by udev.  However, when I go to read from
the /dev/video0 device, it fails:

    [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -l /dev/video0 
    crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 Mar 23 13:23 /dev/video0

    [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/foo.mpg
    cat: /dev/video0: No such device

No additional lines appear in dmesg after attempting to read from
/dev/video0.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?  I have two cameras of
the same make and model, but ran into the same problem with both.

Thanks,
