When I modprobe vivi I get a /dev/videoX device. The same happens when I plug in a webcam. But the permissions are not the same crw-rw---- 1 root root 81, 0 2008-07-12 20:41 /dev/video0 crw-rw---- 1 root root 81, 1 2008-07-12 20:41 /dev/video1 crw-rw---- 1 root root 81, 2 2008-07-12 20:41 /dev/video2 crw-rw----+ 1 root root 81, 3 2008-07-12 20:42 /dev/video3 In this case I did modprobe vivi n_devs=3 (for video0-2) then I plugged in a USB webcam. This way a normal user is not allowed to read /dev/video0. Does anybody know where the permissions/ACL for vivi are held? In udev rules I can only find [andrea@thinkpad rules.d]$ grep video0 50-udev-default.rules KERNEL=="video0", SYMLINK+="video" Cheers Andrea -- video4linux-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:video4linux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
