** Description changed: I'm running Ubuntu 12.04.2 32bit and the webcam [0x0ac8 0xc002] of my Sony VGN-FE21M laptop gives green/garbled/black output when trying to use it in cheese, xawtv, vlc or skype. The suggested solutions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam/Troubleshooting don't work. The output in the terminal when running 'xawtv' (see the attachment for a screenshot): v4l2: ioctl(fildes = 5 "/dev/video0", request = VIDIOC_QBUF, struct v4l2_buffer *data = { index = 0, type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE, bytesused = 9682, flags = V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED, field = V4L2_FIELD_NONE, timestamp = { 18637,563 seconds }, timecode = { type = 0, flags = 0, frames = 0, seconds = 0, minutes = 0, hours = 0 }, sequence = 0, memory = V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP, m.offset = 2882400000, length = 16777216, input = 0 }) failed, Ongeldig argument (22, EINVAL) because the frame buffer is already in use The output in the terminal when running 'vlc v4l2:///dev/video0': [0xb53ed7a8] v4l2 demux error: Failed to unlock (VIDIOC_QBUF) + --- + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24. + AplayDevices: + **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** + card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] + Subdevices: 1/1 + Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.2 + Architecture: i386 + ArecordDevices: + **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** + card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] + Subdevices: 1/1 + Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: laura 1889 F.... pulseaudio + Card0.Amixer.info: + Card hw:0 'Intel'/'HDA Intel at 0xd2300000 irq 46' + Mixer name : 'SigmaTel CXD9872RD/K' + Components : 'HDA:83847661,104d0c00,00104201 HDA:14f12bfa,104d0200,00090000' + Controls : 13 + Simple ctrls : 7 + CheckboxSubmission: cf4b587dc4e1fe411776e8d7ddfb36ad + CheckboxSystem: b633b4f40868d491c2ae5b50030ce6f3 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a0325418-85de-479f-86a9-85b42c981b93 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release i386 (20111012) + MachineType: Sony Corporation VGN-FE21M + MarkForUpload: True + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia + Package: linux (not installed) + PccardctlIdent: + Socket 0: + no product info available + PccardctlStatus: + Socket 0: + no card + ProcFB: 0 VESA VGA + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-40-generic root=UUID=bbe2b1b2-fff7-405e-9bd8-bcbf1719edf2 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-40.64-generic 3.2.40 + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-3.2.0-40-generic N/A + linux-backports-modules-3.2.0-40-generic N/A + linux-firmware 1.79.1 + Tags: precise running-unity + Uname: Linux 3.2.0-40-generic i686 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-11-13 (160 days ago) + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare + dmi.bios.date: 05/11/2006 + dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies LTD + dmi.bios.version: R0130J3 + dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A + dmi.board.name: VAIO + dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.board.version: N/A + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: 7N1M0000000002341e39ffea5882 + dmi.chassis.type: 10 + dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation + dmi.chassis.version: C3LMF2Y2 + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologiesLTD:bvrR0130J3:bd05/11/2006:svnSonyCorporation:pnVGN-FE21M:pvrC3LMF2Y2:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrC3LMF2Y2: + dmi.product.name: VGN-FE21M + dmi.product.version: C3LMF2Y2 + dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation ** Attachment added: "AcpiTables.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1134565/+attachment/3651353/+files/AcpiTables.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1134565 Title: Green/garbled/black webcam [0x0ac8 0xc002] output for Sony VGN-FE21M laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1134565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
