my SuSE 9.2 got bugged somehow and got extremely slow (e.g.15mins for a
reboot), 9.3 wouldn't even install, 10.0 did but got extremely unstable.
So I started with SuSE 10.1 from scratch, with the 2.6.16.13-4-default kernel
that includes pwc.
So far I only used the modules, and those proved fine.
The now integrated pwc works perfectly in recognising the cam.
But, the image is a solid medium gray.
This is in all clients (motv, xawtv, gnomemeeting, camstream) I so far have
installed.
Camstream as a client accesses the philips extensions, but no matter what
setting tried, the image remained as gray as it was.
the files in /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.13-4/drivers/usb/media/pwc/ all mention a
copyright of 2004. A version number was included in none of them, and I do
not know how to extract it from hex or the binary either.
A couple of weeks' listmailings got lost for me, there seems no patch yet for
the 2.6.16 kernel .
Is this a common problem, that might find a solution?
