Bug Description

Binary package hint: ekiga

$ ls -l /dev/.static/dev/video0 /dev/video0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 2007-03-05 02:27 /dev/.static/dev/video0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 2009-04-22 10:54 /dev/video0

I can use gqcam to access the second device, /dev/video0, but ekiga wizard only detects the first .static device and does not permit changing it, and it cannot read from that device.

this ticket was submitted directly from the ekiga program menu option so I don't know what information it has already provided or what may be missing; let me know if there are other details I need to provide.
