Hi, I bought a cheap Genius FaceCam 310 usb webcam, which is promoted as being supported in Linux Kernel > 2.21 (so it says in the box !)
I'm testing in under Slackware 13.1, and the camera is recognized by kernel dmesg: usb 1-1.1: Product: FaceCam 310 uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device FaceCam 310 (0458:7070) input: FaceCam 310 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1:1.0/input/input7 However no application I tried seems to get it to work. When trying to capture video from VLC I got: [0x1054040] v4l2 access error: cannot set input (Device or resource busy) libv4l2: error attempting to open more then 16 video devices libv4l2: error attempting to open more then 16 video devices [0x1054040] v4l2 access error: cannot set input (Device or resource busy) lsmod gives: r...@lorien:/home/malefico# lsmod | grep video uvcvideo 60908 2 videodev 37815 3 uvcvideo v4l1_compat 15120 2 uvcvideo,videodev v4l2_compat_ioctl32 11488 1 videodev i2c_core 18679 3 videodev,nvidia,i2c_i801 Any hints as to what to try ? Is this a known bug ? I have search the threads in the list looking for this specific model with no luck. I'll appreciate any help. Thanks in advance Claudio Andaur. _______________________________________________ Linux-uvc-devel mailing list Linux-uvc-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-uvc-devel
