I tested the same system with another Webcam, which uses the ov511 driver, and v4l-conf (activated from xawtv) got stuck the same way. The problem seems to be in the v4l layer.
I use the Xorg 7.1.1 X-Window server, Device "nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]" using the free 'nv' module. Originally my server loaded the 'v4l' module, but v4l-conf gets stuck also when the server is configured NOT to load this module. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
