Toshiba A200-13X - Webcam issue

[rjmdomingo2003]

Kumusta sa inyo! Napagana ko na yung sound & webcam (thru luvcview) sa lappy kong 'to pwera na lang sa wireless ko. Pero priority ko now is mapagana yung webcam with kopete or gyachi. Green frame lang yung nakikita ko while running in kopete.
Nag-search na ako sa related threads & google pero no luck. Nasubukan ko na ring install yung ibang drivers (spca & camsoft) pero ni hindi nag-switch on yung webcam. Tulong po.
Thanks. Mabuhay po tayo.

[loell]

ganon po talaga kapagka uvc base driver ang webcam, built in po ba ito?

kung attach via usb, can you do
lsusb and if its built in can you do
lspci , then paste the two output here.

para malaman natin kung anong vendor id at device id nya.


idlip lang muna ako ;)

[rjmdomingo2003]

Sige loell, mamya ko na i-post yung mga output (nasa trabaho pa ko eh).

Built-in USB webcam 'to na Chicony Electronics Co. ang manufacturer. Di ko lang kabisado yung bus/serial #.

Later dude.:neutral:

Pasensya na boss loell medyo ginabi na 'ko. Salamat nang marami.

[loell]

can you also do a lsmod , then paste the output here?

my initial find is,
chicony webcams are rumored to work in gutsy a little bit well than fiesty ;)

however, i found this too http://www.mail-archive.com/desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg115469.html

since, different webcam apps uses different API's some used new once and others still old once.


i know gyachi uses an older implementation :(
im not sure with kopete.

can you also try this applications? ekiga and amsn.

[rjmdomingo2003]

Mamya ko na ibibigay ang output ng $lsmod, as usual, nasa trabaho pa 'ko eh.

Yan din ang nakita ko sa mga threads dito na sa gutsy, magwo-work much better ang webcam na 'to. Pero di ko pa nasubukan mag-upgrade ng gutsy kernel from feisty's para patunayan 'tong claim na 'to. Well, I guess I have to take the plunge now.

Meron din pala akong Logitech Orbit/Sphere webcam. Palagay mo mas "madali" paganahin 'to? Thanks bossing!

[rjmdomingo2003]

BTW, nasubukan ko na rin ang ekiga pero wala ring vid output (bouncing ball lang). Di ko pa sinubukan ang amsn kasi interested lang ako sa YM.

heheh, pareho pala tayo, maka YM kasi tayong manga pinoy eh, or atleast karamihan sa atin.

so it is using a uvc driver, sigh*.

i guess , there's not much we can do for now with that webcam,

since meron ka na mang logitech webcam which has better compaitbility with linux. sa ngayon, yun na lang muna ang gamitin mo. ;)

until such time na may mag implement nang , "webcam using gstreamer API"

it shouldn't be that long wait.

[kopinux]

wag niyo rin kalimutan i-evaluate http://webmessenger.yahoo.com/
beta test niyo sa linux yung yahoo webmessenger.

tapos bigyan niyo ng good feedback na ginagamit niyo sa linux at paganihin na yung voice at webcam feature ng flash.

Susubukan ko po. I'll see kung gagana ang webcam ko. Thanks!

[kopinux]

yung feedback a, pinakaimportante yun para hindi isnabin ng yahoo ang mga ubuntu users.

[loell]

Ano pong driver ang gagamitin ko para sa logitech orbit/sphere ko? I mean, suitable para sa kopete, gyachi..

spca5xx ang driver na gagamitin nya, which is installed by default in ubuntu , if you plug it, usually, ubuntu will automatically detect the webcam.

Maraming salamat loell. Susubukan ko 'tong driver na 'to. Susubukan ko na rin yung built-in webcam sa gutsy. Na-download ko na yung .iso nya :popcorn: Inform na lang kung working fine.

[kopinux]

ako naman boss!

compatible ba yung logitech quickcam ko? luman na yung webcam ko.

[loell]

ang webcam mo ay

Logitech QuickCam Pro (dark focus ring) (http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=307)

luckily the driver is,

http://nw802.sourceforge.net/news.html

[kopinux]

na download ko na yung .tar.bz ano gagawin ko dito boss?

kopi, may idea ka ba kung kelan magkakaroon ng webcam feature 'to?

Buti ka pa posible magamit yung webcam mo, mine not possible sa feisty.

Best of luck sa pag-compile ng na-download mong driver.

[loell]

na download ko na yung .tar.bz ano gagawin ko dito boss?

extract, then compile, baka kailangan mo rin mag install nang kernel source header.

[kopinux]

hindi ko pa alam kung kailan, beta pa, detected yung mic, at tv-tuner ko, yung webcam hindi, pero ginagamit ko din dati yung tv-tuner para webcam gamit video-in rca wireless cctv.

kailangan ko talaga ng goodluck, nainstall ko na yung build-essential, kaso nag ka problema sa error: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory

hinanap ko wala doon yung modversion.h

teka marunong ka ba gumamit ng checkinstall? naguguluhan ako, pero sabi masmaganda daw ito kesa sa makeinstall?. gusto ko kasi gumawa ng .deb file muna.

[loell]

like what is suspected kailangan mo nang kernel headers paramag compile nang driver, install the kernel headers by


sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
