Bug Description
Contrary to Ben Collins' status explanation, regarding bug #3717:
<quote>This is fixed in dapper, but will not be fixed in breezy.</quote>
, this bug still occurs in dapper, at least in the first beta. I tested with live-cd kubuntu, with the exact same problem.
Steps to reproduce:
Connect Philips ToUcam model 720K/00; syslog reports
Apr 27 18:53:30 localhost kernel: [4295842.790000] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
Apr 27 18:53:30 localhost kernel: [4295842.918000] drivers/
Apr 27 18:53:30 localhost kernel: [4295842.919000] drivers/
Apr 27 18:53:30 localhost kernel: [4295842.931000] drivers/
Apr 27 18:53:32 localhost kernel: [4295844.276000] drivers/
Apr 27 18:53:32 localhost kernel: [4295844.479000] drivers/
The device appears in Device Manager, wich reports
video4linux.device: /dev/video0
Then do
cat /dev/video0
syslog says
Apr 27 18:57:20 localhost kernel: [4296073.038000] drivers/
