Re: [Bug 290506] Re: cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards)
There is still one problem with cheese. 1. If you take a photo using cheese, it flashes the screen and makes it all white and after that never returns back to normal display. I have to press Alt+Ctrl+F1 and kill cheese manually. This is annoying. The video is recording is fine, but the photo has regressed. This happens when you use no effects. I did not have this problem when I used some other effects I cannot say if all the effects fix this problem, but that is very queer. Taking photos has become a pain now.

I just got an update of the 2.6.27-11-generic kernel and my webcam is no longer working. I don't think it can even detect the webcam anymore. Cheese fails to load and skype cannot see my webcam now. This has happened only recently when the update for version 11 of the kernel came up. The initial version 2.6.27-9 kernel was not able to use the webcam on cheese, but I could use skype. I was watching this thread that the fix has come up in the new kernel. But then the new kernel is a big disappointment - I'm sorry to say. It can't even recognize my webcam now. Mine is a HP integrated webcam that comes in an HP laptop. It was working perfectly when I used the Stefan Bader kernel patch in November 2008. After that in a few weeks someone smart guy came up with a broken kernel 2.6.27-9 and after that this new kernel! It deserves a Nobel prize indeed! Please help me. This kernel is not able to detect my webcam. What should I do?

Sorry, My bad. I figured the problem. I had disabled the AT SPI Registry at startup in order to reduce startup time. But I think that was not allowing access to the webcam. I'm sorry. This kernel is working perfectly for me. I am using 2.6.27-11-generic kernel and both cheese and skype are working perfectly. This is exactly how an OS should be - friendly! :) You know what, if your hardware works, the OS is friendly, if it does not work, I don't care what you say, the OS is not friendly if my hardware does not work. That is how a layman will think. If you want to put the burden of being compatible on the manufacturer, then start issuing Ubuntu compatible logo stickers to those companies whose products will work with Ubuntu. I'm sorry for my last post, this kernel is a blessing indeed!

I don't want to be a nag, but I've just seen the same bug on an 2920 Acer Aspire laptop. Here's what I've done: 1. Please don't try to compile from source UNLESS you know what you're doing, OR you're willing to look for support at the mentioned forum thread. Ok. The user has tried that already, and it didn't work. 2. If you enable proposed repo, at this time the kernel -11 would be installed. This kernel ALREADY include the patches needed to make the webcams affected by this issue work. Proposed repos enabled and kernel updated. Still no go. 3. If you're experiencing slowness in cheese you can install the libv4l 0.5.7 package from Loic's PPA while the SRU is being approved. Installed libv4l-0 version 0.5.7.1~dooz1. I don't know if this is the right version (if it isn't, please tell me how to install it). Still no go, anyway. Chese was working flawlessly in 8.04.

After last update of ubuntu kernel, and v4l package (which was in updates), my cam began work correctly, but only on low resolutions (even lower than 320x200). If I set higher - then I get error described previously. -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Stephan's kernel is now older. So you would have to use a regression in order to make it work. If I understand right Stephan's patch was pushed upstream and should make it in the kernel sometime after .10?

I've got a Dell XPS-1330m and I'm getting the problem with cheese even though I've got compiz disabled and always have done.This is at 1600x1200 - works in lower resolutions. Webcam works in Skype. This is with the stock current intrepid kernel - not the PPA one. jebw 2008/11/14 zoomy942 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I tried what was posted above, and my friend it was begginers luck. :) i loaded up my ubuntu on my USB drive as a fresh install, installed cheese, disabled compiz and rebooted. loaded up cheese and nada. thanks for testing though! -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It'll get there when it's gone through due process.

Re: [Bug 290506] Re: cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards)
Actually this did not help me, may be because I have a little bit different problem I'm able to get cheese to work, as well as gstreamer-properties test, but with a long delay. It take about a minute for picture to start showing in gstreamer-properties test, and even more on cheese. However after that period, camera works flawlessly. I'm getting several messages in /var/log/messages like these as video starts to appear: Nov 13 19:39:13 sevinc-laptop kernel: [ 497.941102] uvcvideo: device Acer Crystal Eye webcam requested null bandwidth, defaulting to lowest. Nov 13 19:39:29 sevinc-laptop kernel: [ 514.821494] uvcvideo: device Acer Crystal Eye webcam requested null bandwidth, defaulting to lowest. As I mentioned above, programs like ekiga, kopete, skype, luvcview works flawlessly. P.S.

Cameras that can do 1600x1200 without lag aren't exactly cheap.
