Description matt_ribat 2007-09-04 20:42:36 UTC

Version:           0.12.5 (using KDE 3.5.7, Kubuntu (gutsy) 4:3.5.7-1ubuntu14)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22-10-generic

My webcam (ID 04f2:b008 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd) does not work with kopete, but does with amsn.
Instead, when I try to configure it, only a green screen is displayed.

When running kopete from a shell, I got :

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 171
  Major opcode:  149
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 171
  Major opcode:  149
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device
read error 19, Aucun périphérique de ce type
read error 19, Aucun périphérique de ce type
read error 19, Aucun périphérique de ce type
etc...

where "Aucun périphérique de ce type" means something like "no such device type"

Same for me in Vega USB 2.0 cam in samsung R70 laptop..

But they claims that this is fixed in latest 3.5, but I have 3.5.7 (latest) and still not working.

See bug: #149359

I mean, this is a duplicate of #149359, can someone change this bug status?

Matt already explained that to you, read his comment in bug 149359.

I may be missing something but bug 149359 is absolutely not related to mine (kopete vs. kate).

Is there any mistake within the bug number ???

Best,
Mathieu

Seems so, #149539 is correct one.

Comment 6 Bram Schoenmakers 2007-09-07 17:34:52 UTC

Oops, sorry about that.
