Hi,

I'm trying to get a USB webcam to work (Pixart Imaging, see=20
http://hardware4linux.info/component/12311/). =20

I attach the webcam and:

# dmesg
ugen0.2: <Pixart Imaging Inc.> at usbus0


I run webcamd (I've tried both from ports and svn):

# ./webcamd
Attached ugen0.2[0] to cuse unit 0
Creating /dev/video0


I try using pwcview without success:

# pwcview
Webcam set to: 320x240 (sif) at 5 fps
libv4l2: error got 10 consecutive frame decode errors, last error: v4l-
convert: error unknown pac207 row header: 0xed90

Error reading from webcam: Resource temporarily unavailable


Skype is also unable to use the webcam (green image with corruption in top=
=20
half of the image).  According to the webpage referenced above the webcam=20
should be usable. =20

Please help,

David

P.S. I'm not on list
