Package: ekiga
Version: 3.2.7-2+b1
Severity: important
When starting Ekiga, I get the error in the subject line, followed by
"Could not open the chosen channel." There is no local video image.
This is on a Thinkpad X200T, using the built-in webcam.
I've tried changing the channel in the video configuration, selecting
Detect Devices, and all of the different options presented for
devices. None work.
The camera works fine in every other application I have tried,
including Cheese and v4l2ucp.
It has worked with Ekiga in the past, but it has been at least a few
months since I used it last.
Happy to provide any other useful info.
Here is a brief excerpt from strace, around parts that seems relevant.
