you need to use the forceblock=1 option
type the following in a terminal
sudo rmmod ov51x-jpeg
sudo modprobe ov51x-jpeg forceblock=1
then start skype
to enable it permanently add the line
options ov51x-jpeg forceblock=1
to the file /etc/modprobe.d/options

Hi,
I'm running a clean install of Hardy and I have a Creative Vista Webcam
VF0330 which is supposed to work with ov51x-jpeg. I had the same
reported error with the ov51x-jpeg (1.54-1) package in the Universe
repository.
I tried the package listed above and the webcam works, but not in Skype.
I then uninstalled it and tried the latest 1.57 source. Again, the
webcam works except in Skype.
I just wanted to confirm the problem Alberto is having. Does anyone
know a workaround?
Thanks!
Hi,
the VF0330 camera works fine (I added the initial support for it).
The initial patch I submitted to launchpad allows the camera to work
with skype through a workaround. The workaround hasn't made it to the
Ubuntu package though as it is, well, a hack (see previous posts to know
more).
So, to summarise, you can simply apply the patch I initially sent on top
of the new ov51x-jpeg source until skype gets fixed.
Hope this helps,
JB

failes with a weird error.
