Camera works just perfect elseware.

Now i would like to get ZM running on my Kubuntu desktop.

ZM problem in Kubuntu ( Ubuntu 10.2 LTS )
Thanks for your tip.PacoLM wrote:Hi,
Search how to increment the shared memory.

I've tested to increase sharedmemory too but no effect.
I think there are a problem with USB cameras generally and their driver not letting ZM access the memory area allocated by the driver. But that is only my guess.
I am still curious if ther is someone who has solved the problem with this version and camera.
