I tried to run it as root and as another user (thinking maybe some
lock file had shown up)
when this first happened, and again later after reboot and the same
error message shows up. I was not
aware that Gnomemeeting worked with other applications, so I haven't
tried that route. As for the module, that may be the problem I have to
deal with. It baffles me why
Gnomemeeting would just stop working, without a reboot or any other OS
changes. I
reinstalled everything from Gnomemeeting to the camera driver, in the
same way that
I originally installed them, but to no avail, same error.
I was curious whether such an error message could be caused by a
driver problem. Some
have suggested that it didn't sound like an error that would show up
because of the driver,
and that it had to do with my OS. I can't see how the OS could be
involved, since all permissions
are fine and it did work for a short while. I may have some module
cleanup to do. I just thought
I would throw it out into the forum to see if anyone else had heard of
such a thing.
Thanks for your attention.
Sincerely,
Tracy
When I used RH8 I also, sometimes, had that error .
I think, if I remember well, I would open Xautv , select the apropriate
device for the camera (if
this is what you want) , close it, go to Gnomemeeting and select the
apropriate device again .
This time it would let me select it and work fine .
If this doesn't work try Gnomemeeting's Configuration Druid .
This, of course, does not release you of triyng all the apropriate steps
Damien has sugested ...
Best luck !
Cheers .
