Synopsis: System locked up, (Crashed), when updating Ekiga from Version 2.0.1 to 2.0.9.
Bugzilla-Product: ekiga

Bugzilla-Version: 2.0.9
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.14.1)
Description:
Description of the crash:Description of the crash: Using First Time
Wizard to check new version: everything AOK, including Audio test of
hardware, until reaching Video section, (Page 9). Clicking the Test
button returned the message: "Failed Test". Clicked button to repeat the
test, for comfirmation. There was no response and the system locked up.
Mouse pointer could be moved, but controls did not respond. Had to
switch off computer from the wall socket and reiniciate it. When it did
so, a window opened with the message:" Ekiga has quit unexpectedly - Do
you want to file a Bug report? ". It had buttons to: Cancel - Submit Bug
Report - Start Ekiga again. This last one did not function, so I
prepared a Bug Report. But when I came to submit it an error window
opened whith the message: " Submission failed - Permission denied". I
found the File: /doc/troubleshooting/other.html and went to Properties -
Permissions and discovered that nobody had permission to execute the
file. In a terminal, I used "chmod" to give "rwx" to myself, as root
user. I confirmed that the change was accomplished. So this is my second
try! When I have finished this report I will try to submit it again.
Hopefully it should go this time.
The webcam which is connected to the computer is made by: MicroSystems
International, (MSI) and is their Model 370i. My O.S. is Ubuntu/Linux
Version 6.06 LTS - Dapper, fully updated to the present date, including
Kernels.



Steps to reproduce the crash: AS ABOVE.
1. 
2. 
3. 

Expected Results: Some resolution of the problem. Also, I need to have
Ekiga functioning normally, urgently, irrespective of Video/Webcam
obstacles.(At present it willnot open).


How often does this happen? Only once, so far.
