Description of problem:
Logitech Orbicam (046d:0896) only works with Cheese when cheese is started 
multiple consecutive times. To my totally untrained eye it seems that the wrong 
video device is created/released.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.35.6-43.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
Start cheese, quit cheese, start cheese again, quit again etc. Continue this 
until the cam led lights up and the cam starts working.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. modprobe -v gspca_vc032x
2. start cheese - green led on cam does not light up and no images from cam
3. stop cheese and start cheese again (cam led may light up & cam may work) or 
stop cheese again and start cheese again (cam led may light up & cam works)
  
Actual results:
Cam does not work when cheese is started for the first time

Expected results:
Cam led lights up & the cam works

Additional info:

Steps I did to reproduce this with output. Please note the messages were
gspca creates video0 but releases video1 or creates video1 and releases
video0 when cheese is terminated (and the cam did not work).

Manually insert gspca_vc032x

This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora

Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no

of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Title:
  Acer Logitech, Inc. Orbicam fails to start working.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux package in Fedora:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Problem description: 
  Logitech, Inc. Orbicam (ID 046d:0896) doesn't work with Cheese (green led on 
cam doesn't light up and no images appear) unless we run Cheese multiple 
consecutive times. Webcam doesn't work with Skype too (no images and led turned 
off).
  This problem has started when Ubuntu 10.10 was installed (kernel 
2.6.35-27-generic - 64 bits). Webcam was working at Ubuntu 10.04 (all kernel 
versions released until Mar-08 / 2011).

  Ubuntu version:
  Distributor ID:       Ubuntu
  Description:  Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:      10.10
  Codename:     maverick

  Kernel version:
  Linux 2.6.35-27-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 22 20:25:46 UTC 2011 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

  Steps to reproduce the bug:

  (With Cheese)
  1. run Cheese - green led on cam doesn't light up and a black screen appears 
instead of the image.
  2. close Cheese and start it again.
  3. If the cam still doesn't work, repeat step 2.

  (With Skype 2.1.0.81)
  1. run Skype (/usr/bin/skype-wrapper)
  2. Log in as a valid user.
  3. At the main menu, click "Options", and then click the "Video" tab on the 
left
  4. Enable Skype Video. Check the box next to "Enable Skype Video."
  5. Open the pull-down menu of devices. Select the device (sometimes it 
appears as /dev/video0 and sometimes as /dev/video1).
  6. Click at the "Test" webcam button. 
  7. Green led on cam doesn't light up and a black screen appears instead of 
the image.

  Expected results:
  Cam led lights up and image appears when Cheese is started.
  Cam led lights up and image appears in the web cam test at Skype.
