Webcam from a chroot?
Hello hello,
(I posted a similar message a few months ago on debian-user with no
luck. Perhaps it is more appropriate to ask here.)
I would like programs inside a 32-bit chroot to be able to access my
USB webcam, which works fine outside the jail. From the chroot, however,
it does not work out-of-the-box, nor do I know if it is at all possible
to do it.
An example of failure:
This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.21-amd64-bootsplash)
xinerama 0: 1152x864+0+0
/dev/video0 [v4l]: ioctl VIDIOCGCAP: Invalid argument
no video grabber device available
Oh, I am running sid. Any suggestion or advice is warmly appreciated.
Cheers,
Davide
