Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cheese
On my Ubuntu 9.10, 64 bit system, Quickam messenger doesn't work. A
typical error I get is exhibited when I try to run cheese
** (cheese:11361): WARNING **: Failed to open /dev/video0: Engedély
megtagadva
(which means: permission denied)
But I have
$ ls -l /dev/video0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 2009-11-23 23:48 /dev/video0
$ whoami
apu
$ grep video /etc/group
video:x:44:dori,marci,apu
Also
$ lsusb |grep -i quick
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:08da Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Messanger
$ lsmod |grep vid
videodev 43360 1 gspca_main
v4l1_compat 16804 1 videodev
v4l2_compat_ioctl32 13344 1 videodev
video 23612 1 i915
output 3680 1 video
The same camera works fine on my laptop which also runs 9.10, but it is
32 bit.
When I run camorama, it reports: "Could not connect to video device
(/dev/video0)" and when I try preloading v4l2convert, so I run
$ env LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so camorama
compatibility, at least I get the camorama window, but I also get an
error window saying "Cannot capture image".
