Help?
Thanks in advance.

Try this:


Edit the file: /usr/bin/zmdc.pl
Find the ‘my @daemons = (’ line.

Add this line:

Code: Select all

$ENV{LD_PRELOAD} = '/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so'; 

I added this below the other ENV’s and above the ‘delete’ (Once you find the 'my @daemons' in this file you'll know where this is)


This preloads the libv4l-0 package

For me I added this line at line 62 in my zmdc.pl file.


Try that and post your logs again

I'll return to version 1.23.2

[avar]

This worked with ubuntu 10.10, zm v1.24.2. I've been trying to get it to work for some time. I needed a headles unit and couldn't get vino to work wth larch. Live arch picked up the cameras right off the live disk but for the life of me I couldn't get vino to work. My preference was Ubuntu.

Thank you so much for posting this!

looking at the this line, from the log
Failed to stat video device /dev/video0: No such file or directory]

it looks like is not detecting the camera at all. In my case the /dev/video0 file was there but the monitor would stay red under the source list in zonminider.

thanks again
