Some people with the same kernel as you upgraded their module version of ov511 (get it at alpha.dyndns.org) and now have good results. I suspect it could help in your case too. If not, recontact us. We can also execute gnomemeeting with the --debug option, that will tell you where it fails provided that pwlib was compiled with PTRACING enabled. le jeu 14-03-2002 à 16:27, Sirron Davis a écrit : > Hi, > > I cannot get gnomemeeting 0.85.1 to work using my webcam.
