[Qce-ga-discussion] The driver loads, but I get no images (green screen) with qc-usb-0.6.3

[David L. <lo...@eu...>]

I find the same problems with the default driver included in Mandriva Linux.

Distro: Mandriva 2005 LE
Kernel: 2.6.11-6mdk
Camera: Dexxa webcam from Logitech

My camera id:

Next round: let's see if you have a supported QuickCam.
Please plug in your USB camera before continuing.
Press Ctrl+C to quit, Enter to continue --->

I can find the following probably compatible devices:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 046d:0870 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express

dmesg:

I probably have a incompatible camera, as reports:

I bought this camera exclusively for the support under linux.

If you need more info please ask.
