Thinking my PC was the problem I built a new i7-based PC but the Creative Live! Cam Optia AF continues to be inaccessible to all graphics appications. Ekiga recognises it as an input device (VF0560 Live ! Cam Optia AF (PTLIB/V4L2) but cannot display local video (option is grayed out). XSane throws an error when scanning for devices: Failed to open device 'v4l:/dev/video0': Invalid Argument. Camorama simply says is could not connect to video device (/dev/video0).
Even in plain text my lsusb output exceeds your 40k limit (it's 51k), so I have attached it zipped. Please advise. Thx. ________________________________ From: shilton00 <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, August 3, 2009 8:39:11 AM Subject: Creative Live! Cam Optia AF Hi I am running Ubuntu Linux - 9.04 - Jaunty Jackalope. I just purchased a Creative Live! Cam Optia AF as this has been documented as a web cam that functions with Ubuntu. It is supposed to use device ID 014e:4058 according to the list of linux UVC devices. However, upon installation lsusb shows: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 041e:406d Creative Technology, Ltd I.e. a different ID and this ID is not shown to work under Ubuntu Linux. And it's true - I can't get any webcam apps to work. Any advice? I would have sent you the entire verbose lsusb listing but your 40k limit prevents this. Thanks, Steve Hilton.
