What Gmane interface are you referring to? I'm only aware about its web form mail to send posts but I rarely use that, I prefer by far a newsreader.

Agree with that :-) But I have to say that I'm also in the role of the "sporadic user" in another mailing lists (for instance: Pan, Mutt, linuxwireless...) where I have posted once in a year (or even less) to get feedback for something specific, so altough I never said "please, CC me" and I had to manually watch for the responses, I can understand the user request.

Given that an older version of the package works and the fact there is more people experiencing a similar problem, to me looks like it can be a bug, indeed.

Debian unstable is going through a transition between gcc 3.3 and 4.0. IIUC you can make the qc driver user gcc 3.3 or wait until someone make it use gcc 4.0.

If so, it sounds like it is taking individual images, putting them each in a separate slot in the camera's memory, and when it runs out of that memory, it can no longer answer the grabbing function of xawtv or gqcam. It *shouldn't* really be running that way when functioning as a video camera, but I haven't seen anything to switch either of them to "snap image, transfer image, clear image" with my camera, and I suspect that it is presently the same thing with yours :( -- Mark L.

My STV680 based camera does the latter - it takes 20 images for the 20 image slots, and then crashes itself and my usb subsystem, which at present stays down until I reboot (taking my second printer with it as it is also usb.) If you are getting vastly more images, it is a different problem. -- Mark L.
