Hi Freek,

did you raise gpu memory to at least 128MB as advertised in

http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/14229/how-can-i-enable-the-camera-without-using-raspi-config

you can only use the proprietary videocore capturing (e.g. raspistill)
or v4l, but not both. you also have to reboot completely when
switching.

My guess is that you need to switch to the raspberrypi-userland mesa
libraries, but I haven't tried.

yeah, the module needs to be *blacklisted* (not loaded) for raspistill.
