Hi,
I've recently upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10. All went fine apart from an issue I have with a webcam. Whatever application I use (motion, canorama, vlc) reports that the camera is already in use.
How do I determine what has a hold of this device?
Also, how can I get a list of (non-system) software that is loaded at boot time?
8.04 automatically started 'motion' and took control of the webcam but 8.10 doesn't appear to be doing this.
Thanks.
