Unable to get hold of your webcam #21

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installation (ok)
2. qt-facetrainer ("No camera" solved by adding : export
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so)
3. Adding "auth sufficient pam_face_authentication.so" to /etc/pam.d/sudo

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When trying the sudo command, I should get the face recognition screen but
I got this message instead : "Unable to get hold of your webcam. Please
check if it is plugged in." (webcam led is not on and it should)
Webcam is pluged in and works successful with gstreamer-properties and
qt-facetrainer.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- Ubuntu karmic koala (last update)
- Webcam isight V4l2 (/dev/video0)
Or Webcam labtec (same issue)

Yes it works know.
I created the file : /etc/ld.so.preload
and writed "/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so" into it.
(sudo gedit /etc/ld.so.preload)
And then i have update ldconfig : sudo ldconfig
My error was to put the path in ld.so.conf first.

Thank you ;)
