Here's a quick and dirty workaround: after you delete the uvcdynctrl- udev.log file, create a symbolic link to /dev/null so that new text is thrown out.
sudo ln -s /dev/null /var/log/uvcdynctrl-udev.log I haven't experienced the high CPU usage that others have reported, so I don't know if this has any effect on that or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/811604 Title: uvcdynctrl spams uvcdynctrl-udev.log and fills up filesystem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libwebcam/+bug/811604/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
