I've used Karmic Beta to play a little bit more with my VX-1000 and I've actually got a couple of images of myself :) Motion works and 1 of 10 (or something) images taken is actually showing my entire face and not just parts of it. This is in Virtualbox 3.0.6 in a Jaunty host with 2.6.30.5 kernel. Karmic has got latest gspca compiled and installed. However I had to compile it with "make -i all" since "firedtv-1394.o" had errors and compilation halted. I installed it since without it the camera wasn't working as it should and since a kernel downgrade to 2.6.30.5 didn't help, maybe a newer driver would help.
It looks like Cheese, Skype, vgrabbj and motion initialize the webcamera, the first frame is being captured and drawn but then something happens and the image shown is more or less corrupt. The result varies from 100% Isak to 100% green color. Cheese, Skype and vgrabbj throw - as shown below - errors. I've tried all programs with the "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so" switch and at least vgrabbj seems to work better with it. i...@isak-desktop:~$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 2 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffd9 libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits i...@isak-desktop:~$ cheese libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 2 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 1 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ff99 libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 6 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: error: more then 63 AC components (68) in huffman unit libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 3 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 2 more bits libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffd9 libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: 0000ffff libv4lconvert: Error decompressing JPEG: fill_nbits error: need 2 more bits i...@isak-desktop:~$ Dmesg throws something that looks like this (the digits varies from time to time): [ 693.146036] gspca: frame overflow 32848 > 32768 i...@isak-desktop:~$ dmesg [ 7.634085] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 [ 7.691763] gspca: main v2.7.0 registered [ 7.718637] vboxadd: Successfully loaded version 3.0.6 (interface 0x00010004) [ 7.849353] gspca: probing 045e:00f7 [ 7.880352] sonixj: Sonix chip id: 11 [ 7.890557] gspca: /dev/video0 created [ 7.890596] gspca: probing 045e:00f7 [ 7.890605] gspca: intf != 0 [ 7.890629] gspca: probing 045e:00f7 [ 7.890638] gspca: intf != 0 [ 7.890986] usbcore: registered new interface driver sonixj [ 7.891019] sonixj: registered So the driver exists, it think it does what it should but some setting somewhere is a little bit bad. -- Intrepid kernel 2.6.27-6 no supported image sensor dected for SN9C105 (045e, 00f7) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280657 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
