Issue with xawtv
Hello,
When I try to run xawtv I get the following messages:
vincent@swatantra:~$ gksudo xawtv
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
xinerama 0: 1280x800+0+0

v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway

vincent@swatantra:~$ v4l-info

Now I noticed that my 'video*' devices are in /dev/.static/dev rather than /dev and this could be the reason for it not being accessible.
I had asked this question on IRC was told that it had something to do with udev. What should I do to get this to work?
Thank you.
Regards,
