SRU justification: Impact: In Intrepid the change to v4l2 and use of v4l1 compatibility library has caused several issues with the uvcvideo driver which in this case are visible using cheese.
Fix: Several patches were backported from the upstream kernel driver and the uvcvideo project to fix those issues. All of the patches are limited to the uvcvideo module and have been tested as part of a PPA build. Testcase: With the current driver in Intrepid the webcams do not work with cheese. The updated module works. ** Attachment added: "0007-V4L-DVB-9031-uvcvideo-Fix-incomplete-frame-drop.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19897819/0007-V4L-DVB-9031-uvcvideo-Fix-incomplete-frame-drop.patch -- cheese malfunctioning with UVCVIDEO webcams (was cheese doesn't show v4l2 video output and disables output on gstreamer-based apps ran afterwards) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290506 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
