Dear All, this is my first mail on this list, I hope this question is not already asked 10 times.
I also posted on Centos6 forum and mailing list concerning this, I tested this on both 5.7 and 6.0 when first installing CentOs some 6 months ago, I noticed this strange thing called Ekiga. Now, some guys at work use Skype and I heard that's owned by Microsoft. So enter James. I bought a webcam, actualy 2, to test Ekiga. Logitech Webcam c210. I saw this url :http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ on this url :http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/HardwareList/Webcams and in short : I think I have the driver i need --V4L2-- on my Centos6 machine. To make sure, I installed everything that came up under # yum search V4L2 with epel testing enabled. #dmesg | tail -n15 shows : usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 12 usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=046d, idProduct=0819 usb 2-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=2 usb 2-3: SerialNumber: CE6AA1D0 usb 2-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device<unnamed> (046d:0819) input: UVC Camera (046d:0819) as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-3/2-3:1.0/input/input13 still in Ekiga i get error message ( translated from Dutch) : an error occurred with video device UVC Camera (046d:0819) an error occurred when opening the device blahblahbla check access rights or driver. under System - Preferences I can't find anything configurable ( is that even English ?) Can anyone help me configure something somewhere or whatever is needed ? My company is about to choose a video conference system, I want it to be Ekiga. Thanks a million in advance James Opensource Software is the future. _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
