I can confirm Jos story. I just want to add that I can actually get some picture using v4l2 but all the other applications that use v4l1 crash when they try to touch the webcam (My webcam: ID 174f:6a51 Syntek 2.0MPixel Web Cam - Asus Z96J, Z96S, S96S)
It is actually very scary because the kernel itself crashes very often when this program attempt to use the webcam. I'm very interested to see if the 2.0 driver works with 2.6.29 (it is supposed to). Unfortunately I don't know how to tell 9.04 to use 2.6.29 (if it is even in some repository...? is there a package somewhere?) Can someone guide me how to do this or someone can just test the webcam with 2.6.29 and 2.0 of stk11xx. Thanks Nikola -- stkwebcam kernel-module doesn't support all the webcams supported previously with stk11 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269123 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
