Ubuntu :: Built In Webcam Is Not Working
Jan 10, 2011
I installed skype today and was in the middle of a web convo, and then skype crashed. Since then, my cam has not worked at all. I've tried Cheese, camorama, guvcview, and none of them are working. They all display "device not found".

I want to use my laptop's built in webcam as remote webcam and I don't want to use FTP and post images to a www and use php script or sth, I want to make it accessed remotely as a fast stream and if there is a way I would like to use it with Windows XP - Microsfot Windows Messenger.

I've tried my built in webcam with TinyChat and it wont work. It works on some other programs, but for some reason TinyChat can't find my webcam.

I also posted this as a question in launchpad, but wasn't sure if this might be a better place. Pretty new to Ubuntu, if you couldn't tell.I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and cheese/skype don't see the webcam built into my machine. It worked with Windows 7 that came with the computer, and in 9.04. I'm using a Asus 1005PE.
result from lsusb:
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I have a ASUS K52J.I tried cheese.It was initially upside down. Then I tried Video for linux device preferences.When I checked vertival flip, that fixed cheese. But it was still upside down in skype.I tried downloading skype from the webpage, and from synaptic.I tried running skype in sudo.I tried: export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && L
D_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype but i get: ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored
and I tried: export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.I tried this:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
When skype loads up, i go to the options>video>test. The green light comes on by the built in webcam, then i get a segmentation fault and skype crashes: /usr/local/bin/skype: line 2:4055 Segmentation fault LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype
Then I tried:LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so then running skype and i got the segmentation fault again.I may have missed some threads on this but everyone else seemed to be thanking someone for fixing their problem by now.Finally I tried threating my computer with a Windows installation. But I think both me and the computer knew it was a hollow threat,

I'm having trouble with the webcam on my laptop. This is a full-sized laptop, not one of the Eee models.I'm not entirely sure what the model or chipset of the webcam is, as there doesn't seem to be much documentation available (as far as I know, this is Asus' first foray into the laptop market in the US).
I previously had the camera working just fine in Windows Vista, so I know the hardware is just fine. I have tried several programs to get the device working, and some (Cheese, for example) are able to get the green light next to the camera to turn on. I've tried running a number of programs as both the normal user and as root, but I don't seem to be able to get the camera to output video. I didn't see any drivers on the Asus site. Is anyone able to lend a hand with this? I'm moving out of the country in a month, and would really love to be able to keep in touch with my family and friends over skype or something similar.
EDIT: In programs like Cheese, the webcam seems to be detected as "USB2.0 UVC PC Camera (/dev/video0)". I imagine it's a good sign that video0 is available.

I'm trying to add a webcam and it get's registered nicely. The problem is that after a reboot it registers as card 0, my internal card gets registered as card 1, and I lose all sound.
arecord -l without webcam:
Code:
card 0: default [PnP Audio Device ], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[code]....
C-Media is the built-in soundcard and Philips is the webcam.why the built-in is registered as an usb-device but it is and external sources confirm that this is correct. According to the alsa project wiki the correct way to give two devices using the same module (such as two usb-devices) a specific index is to add something along the following in the main alsa configuration file.
Code:
options snd-usb-audio index=1,2 vid=0x0ccd,0x0d8c pid=0x0028,0x000c
As I use Debian Squeeze 64-bit with the odd package from sid and multimedia repository enabled I found that the correct file to add this in is /etc/modprobe.conf. I therefore added this:
Code:
options snd-usb-audio index=0,1 vid=0d8c,0471 pid=0201,0333
This corresponds to my hardwares' VID and PID. When I reboot I and do arecord -l I get:
Code:
arecord: device_list:223: no soundcards found...
As an alternative I tried to add this snippet to /etc/modprobe.d/sound instead but at boot I get the message that "vid 0d8c" is an invalid parameter. Well, it's not. It adds upp with the output from lsusb and the external source linked to above. Do I need to add that arecord -l tells me I have no soundcard?

I have a problem with my built-in microphone in ubuntu 10.04, its not listed in mixers like other notebooks that have anologue microphone 1 / 2, I have only Analogue microphone (that works only with external mic), analogue line-in and analogue input. Also I updated Alsa drivers to 1.0.23, but nothing changed.why my built-in microphone is not listed by mixer, is not view at all?

I recently installed GUVCView to record videos via my webcam but my built-in microphone isn't working. Is there a driver for mine? The computer is an HP G60-530US, and the sound card is a Conxenant audio card and the webcam is a Chicony HP Webcam-101.

Ok so I've been all over Google trying to find an answer as to why my MPD server won't properly output over httpd. When I try to connect to it from any source, it gives me a "404:Entity Not Found" error. There hasn't been any useful info out there to solve this problem. Help please! Attached is my mpd.conf file. All my permissions and firewalls are set up properly AFAIK.

I'm using 10.04 and it's been excellent all the way through up until this problem happened. My laptop's built-in SD card reader has stopped working out of nowhere.
Here are the basic facts:Laptop is a Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR I tried older Linux Kernels, it's not the newest kernel causing the problem. The SD card reader is not shown in disk utility anymore. It used to be shown, even when no SD card was inserted. Now? Nothing.lspci output:
Code:

i am running backtrack 4 (using kde 3.5.10) on my laptop with an ATI mobility radeon HD 4650 graphics card. i installed the proprietary drivers from the ati site, just as i always do in any linux installation. then i installed xgl, and all of the compiz packages, including compiz-kde, but for some reason, my system won't enable xgl rendering. every time i run either "compiz --replace" or "fusion-icon" in the terminal, i lose the borders of my windows, and every thing i've tried so far does not work.

There purports to be a built-in microphone in this computer.
I tried using SoundRecorder in Gnome to test this theory. It records silence.

I have a crappy usb UVC webcam (iCan brand), but I don't really know how to get it working? Do I need to install any drivers? What software would I use to get it to work? Do I need to enable anything? It doesn't seem to be showing video if I open skype, although it does detect that I have something on /dev/video0, and lsusb gives:Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0ac8:332d Z-Star Microelectronics Corp.

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS one week ago without any problems on my Packard Bell EasyNote MX67-P-023 notebook.
Everything works fine except my webcam "USB 2.0 Camera"
lsusb: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0402:5602 ALi Corp. Video Camera Controller
In programs like aMsn, Emesene, or Cheese it's recognized as "USB 2.0 Camera"
For example(I'm translating menus from italian) in aMSN->preferences->Other->Audio Video:
- select device box: "v4l2: USB 2.0 Camera"
- select channel box:" ALi m5602"
- and in the video box where image should appear: "unable capture from device"
In the other programs it shows a completely blank screen, or sometimes a blank screen with some strange uncomprensible white-grey stripes.

Okay, I've got a small webcam for my laptop that doesn't come with Linux drivers, only Windows drivers. Any linux-based drivers that came with Ubuntu 9.04 that might work don't. How do I make the Windows drivers for the webcam work with the hardware so I can use the webcam?
