Gents,
I'm running into a problem with getting video working on skype. I am so
close, and I feel it's just one little thing left before it works.
I've installed webcamd and skype from ports without problems. Loaded
the necessary modules, got the webcam working with other utilities, but
skype (ah, good ole skype) is refusing to acknowledge the existence of
/dev/video0.
After extensive reading, I have given up and turn to the mailing list
for assistance. I am getting the following error in /var/log/messages
when attempting to config my webcam via skype:
Jun 3 23:29:39 wm kernel: linux: pid 49246 (skype): ioctl fd=3D18,
cmd=3D0x7601 ('v',1) is not implemented
Searching on the internet led me to the following post:
http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-usb@freebsd.org/msg06354.html
The post simply reads in part, linux.ko doesn't have the capabilities,
namely a VIDIOCGCAP ioctl, to handle the call.
It's my hopes by posted to the emulation list that someone may in fact
have a solution off hand, whether it be by way of patches and/or the
necessary know how to field such a problem.
Thanks in advance,
Paul
