Got a good hint in #440590: The modules must be reloaded after boottime to work correctly:
modprobe -r gspca-sunplus modprobe gscpa-sunplus That does the trick for me! A /dev/videoX is created, accessable and full functioning! I hadn't success putting these lines in rc.local - it won't be executed. Still have to figure out, why. But if I execute the two lines by hand after every boot, I have my webcam back, again! -- GSPCA webcam no longer working: no /dev/video0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255678 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
