Upstream has closed the cheese bug as "Not Gnome" , Quoting Upstream:
"You should be able to have cheese working again installing libv4l >= 0.5.7 and a recent uvcvideo driver. If you are running ubuntu intrepid this means enabling intrepid-proposed and upgrading kernel from there. Unfortunately libv4l didn't enter intrepid repositories yet but you can install it from Loic Minier's PPA at https://launchpad.net/~lool/+archive If you're not using Ubuntu check if your distribution already packaged latest libv4l and upgrade it or install it from source." "Little update: libv4l 0.5.7 entered intrepid-proposed. Installing from Loic Minier's PPA is not needed anymore." Closing cheese task. ** Changed in: cheese (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: cheese (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: New => Invalid -- needed: libv4l and associated application patches (or "gspca stopped working in 2.6.27") https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260918 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
