[Bug 1026587] Re: Cheese segfaults on start
Some updates: 1) I have tried again *without* plugging in the Creative Webcam (i.e. using only the integrated Logitec OrbiCam) and the behaviour is the same. 2) I think the OrbiCam has no hardware problems because it works correctly if I try to do a Google Hangout from Chrome. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026587 Title: Cheese segfaults on start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cheese/+bug/1026587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1026587] Re: Cheese segfaults on start
Even if v4l2 does not support a camera or if a camera is broken, cheese shouldn't crash because of this. Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.

[Bug 1026587] Re: Cheese segfaults on start
Looks like the Orbicam is supported by this v4l2 driver : http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ and it looks like it's in the kernel : > Linux 2.6.26 and newer includes the Linux UVC driver natively. Creative Labs drivers should be here : opensource.creative.com/webcam.html but it's unresponsive for me at the moment so I can't check if they support v4l2. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026587 Title: Cheese segfaults on start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cheese/+bug/1026587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1026587] Re: Cheese segfaults on start
The laptop I am using (acer aspire 5633WLMi) has two webcams: one is the one which is integrated right above the lcd, listed by lsusb as Bus 001 Device 006: ID 046d:0896 Logitech, Inc. OrbiCam. I suspect this webcam could be physically broken, and was actually using cheese to investigate. :-) The other webcam is a Creative labs CT6840, and is connected to a usb port and listed as Bus 002 Device 003: ID 05a9:0511 OmniVision Technologies, Inc. OV511 Webcam. In the past I have used with success under linux both webcams. (Although it was quite some time ago, so I am not sure if it was V4L or V4L2). Alexander, the thread on ubuntuforums that you pointed me to unfortunately has broken links -- can you suggest me another way to check if the camera is V4L2 compatible?
