"ekiga crashes upon startup when I have the linux-uvc kernel module
loaded.  It did not crash when I did not have this kernel module loaded.

I have a Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 (046d:08c5), and am running on
debian etch amd64.

Please help!  This bug is 100% reproducible (for me); I cannot start
ekiga at all when I have this kernel module loaded."

1. I don't know what this kernel module do
2. shouldn't it be reported to a bug against this module and not against ekiga ?

Comment 2 Snark 2007-04-05 14:15:32 UTC

Eh, I notice that the stack trace is a duplicate of bug #421801, and will be fixed in the 2.0.8 release (it's still in 2.0.7 unfortunately).
