I could identify the manufacturer from '041e'. But I was not able to identify actual product as the second part is not correct. It is having five digits '0405f' instead of four. > http://www.rastageeks.org/ov51x-jpeg/index.php/Main_Page > Now, this site has an upgraded driver version for Hardy.

I was going to ask you to use device /dev/video0 in gst-launch command. But looks like that device node is not created for some unknown reason. Since you are saying that it was working on gutsy, it is a regression and I suggest that you log a bug on http://launchpad.net and provide the information asked. This is all the help I could provide. :-) Onkar -- Passion - Some people climb mountains - others write Free software.
