Re: Built-in Webcam issues in Ekiga ?

 

Just to make sure we have the same webcam run 'lsusb' and lets compare the Vendor/Device ID. I know some of the G60 have slight differences.

lsusb:
ID 064e:a102 Suyin Corp

I did a lot of googling tonight to try and see if i could figure something out, but no luck. I went to the UVC site, it was one of the few drivers i could find a Supported Devices list, and compared the output of lsusb and it seems to go from ...a101 to ...103. This webcam worked fine up until recently. I cant get mine to work in cheese.

If we cant figure anything out soon we should definitely file a bug.
