Hello,
I'm running motion on Lubuntu 16.04 LTS 32 bit.
On another computer running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS the same webcam with motion
is working fine.
I can run sudo cheese and the video works fine from the webcam.
When I run sudo motion, I get the following messages and the jpg files
are showing a grey screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Martin
