Hi all
I updated the kernel to the newest stable, 2.6.28 and i noticed some changes in
v4l.
I have a Trust webcam which is driven by gspca, in detail pac7311.
When i run xawtv the webcam led blink for a while and stops and i can see the
screen in black.
Here is some log, please if you need something more just ask me.
