It seems different users have different code in /etc/network/interfaces file. It confused me a bit when I read similar posts that said, comment out XYZ, and I didn't have any XYZ in my file.

My problem is similar to Ubu-freak's. I upgraded some of Linux packages, so I have both, 2.6.24-24 and (half-baked) 2.6.24-25. When I first booted with 2.6.24-25, I was prompted to set up virtualbox...

gconftool-2 -g /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/videosrc

was v4l2src - same as that for sergiom.

Thanks for the suggestion, Sergio. I saw the link and checked that out of luvcview, dov4l, v4l-conf and cheese I only have cheese installed on my system. I don't mind going ahead and getting the...

Thanks a lot for your help Ramaddan, but I'm afraid we've only made marginal progress. Here's what I did:

Uninstalled empathy

Hey Ramaddan, I'm on Hardy - the pre-installed version being shipped by Dell.

Hi All,

I'm reopening an old discussion. I followed the steps mentioned in the first post on this thread. I can initiate voice calls with my friends by clicking on the mic icon. But as soon as...

Whoopie!!

Thanks for the how-to link. And may God bless ubuntu-freak.

Cheers!
