Re: [Motion-user] That Logitech 2 camera problem again

[GSO <gs...@ya...>]

Apols for that somewhat garbled previous post.  In summary:

- bug 2) (ref. below) occurs on Slackware and Debian installs (though I
haven't tried the latest Ubuntu), though on Slackware at least, it doesn't
start until I 'ifconfig eth0 up' (I can't say there is no sign of the bug
prior to this, but essentially it does start up at this point, there was,
e.g., a twitch of the bug as I installed VirtualBox)

- bug 1) is largely a feature of Red Hat (I've reason to wonder if it isn't
some sort of electrical interference)

- to confuse matters I did a clean offline install of SL6 (aka RHEL6) of the
complete developer workstation (this is the full Red Hat, everything), built
motion (w/out ffmpeg) and found bug 1) was the result, however a later
likewise offline but bare metal install (minimum X, just TWM), and there was
no sign of bug 1) as usual (and how I usually use motion)
