Re: [Bug 120434] Re: [needs-packaging] Ricoh R5U870 Webcam Driver
Hi, I don't understand what Ozzyprv's comment means... Does it mean the camera is detected and should work ? Here is the output from my Sony Viao SZ4NM : lsusb Bus 005 Device 003: ID 05ca:1835 Ricoh Co., Ltd Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC5 lsmod | grep videodev videodev 46720 2 uvcvideo,compat_ioctl32 v4l1_compat24580 2 uvcvideo,videodev I can also confirm that Cheese or Ekiga don't see the device. Franck Hi all, can the reporters check what Ozzyprv has just reported? Probably only applies to a small subset of Ricoh webcams thou. -- [needs-packaging] Ricoh R5U87x Webcam userland tools https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 120434] Re: [needs-packaging] Ricoh R5U870 Webcam Driver
Hi think the dkms package won't work with recent versions of the kernel (Intrepid). The development seems to have moved to a user space driver, so it would be nice if we could package it... I don't know how to do it, I think one have to play with udev and such to trigger driver loading...
