Yes, the problem is that $ ls -l /dev/shm/usb-0000\:00\:1a.1-2\:USB\ Camera\ \(046d\:08da\) -rw------- 1 root root 4096 2009-12-02 01:14 /dev/shm/usb-0000:00:1a.1-2:USB Camera (046d:08da)
I got this from another bugreport (I think debian). Where these permissions are set, I have no idea---I certainly couldn't see anything in /etc/udev. Even if I change it to 666, it changes back to 600 after reboot. That bugreport claimed that the problem was fixed back in August. Why this is a problem of low importance is not clear to me. I think the problem affects everybody on a 64 bit box trying to use skype because the permissions are probably set by the v4l1 compatibility package. -- /dev/video0 permission problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488455 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
