@3v1n0 With your ppa fractional scaling works again (I'm almost sure it worked fine in 19.10) Text rendering is pretty bad at 125%, slightly better at 150% Geforce GTX 1080, latest nvidia driver (440.100), Philips 328P 4k display. Thanks for looking into this, let me know if I can do more.

@everybody: Please also note that libv4l 0.5.6 has got a nasty bug that prevents uvcvideo webcams to correctly work. So the kernel alone is not enough to make Cheese work again. The new libv4l 0.5.7, with the fix, already went through a SRU and should enter intrepid-proposed soon (if it didn't

I talked about this issue with the uvcvideo maintainer. It seems it is strictly connected with gstreamer's v4l2src switch to libv4l2. Anyway he came up with a patch that fixes it, or at least fixes mine. He will commit it to his branch on linuxtv.org soon, I'll keep you updated. -- cheese

It may be the case that Cheese makes correct use of the API, in a way most other applications don't use the API, and that uvcvideo breaks when used this way. The API? which api are you talking about? the v4l2 api? we just do *one* ioctl, it's a very basic and simple one and it's already been

Could any of you check if the issue can be reproduced with pre 2.27 kernels too? The last one from 2.26 series should be fine. I want to be 100% sure this thing has nothing to do with cheese (and possibly with gstreamer too) and it is a uvcvideo issue only. -- cheese doesn't show v4l2 video

zoomy942, the relevant part of that thread (the one about uvcvideo driver) suggests to install latest trunk from uvcvideo svn. That's the latest version before uvcvideo was included in mainline kernel (2.27) and probably the same (or almost the same) one included in Hardy. If it fixes the issue

Andres, cheese asking hal for v4l capable devices has absolutely no relation with this bug. Please don't blame us if you don't know what you are talking about. We just use gstreamer to access the webcam device. The only thing we do on our own (directly accessing the device) is a VIDIOC_QUERYCAP
