Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: OS:: Linux Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Cyrille Henry (nusmuk) Assigned to: IOhannes m zmlnig (zmoelnig) Summary: pix_video to look for all driver for each device

Initial Comment: opening /dev/video0 may fail if it is a v4l device and gem look for a v4l2 device. even if Gem is able to open a v4l device. i think when sending a [open ...< message Gem should try to open this device with all available driver (V4L,V4L2,DV).

this would allow patch to work on diferent computer without changing the patch.

i think no one should care the drivers used by a webcam, so Gem should not ask...
