I already reported this as bug Bug #291906 but I didn't get any feedback so here it is again:
I have Mustek gSmart 300 web cam. It worked fine under Ubuntu 8.04 with the gspca drivers manually compiled and installed. When I plug the cam it beeps showing that it is being recognized by the system. Then It beeps again and I get a window with the following message: Unable to mount Mustek Systems, Inc. gSmart 300 Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device After I click OK, there is an icon present at the desktop Mustek Systems, Inc. gSmart 300. by clicking on the icon i can open the location gphoto2://[usb:002,010]/. This probably gives me access to the photo function of the webcam. I can copy pictures from this directory(representing the cams internal memory), but I can't delete them. If I try to delete a picture, I get this message: Error while deleting. There was an error deleting Image001.jpg. Show more details->Not supported The webcam function is not functioning completely. There is no /dev/video created for it.

I am also not sure if this is important but my Ubuntu 8.10 is an upgrade from Ubuntu 8.04, so it is not a clean install. Also it might be important for you to know that I have Pinacle PCTV Studio TV tuner card installed on my computer. It uses BT878 driver. And it seams it is broken too. It is listed in the Multimedia Systems selector but when I test it the test doesn't show any errors, but there is no window showing the picture from the tuner. If you need more information please ask. -- Webcam (gspca) is not detected anymore since ubuntu 8.10 and Kernel 2.6.27 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293259 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
