Seg fault in xawtv with webcam3 USB
Hi, folks!
I think I've solved the problem with /dev/video device for the
webcam3 USB camera. Now I have another problem: everytime I run xawtv
it gives a segmentation fault. I have another camera, a webcam 2
parallel, and it works very fine. I've checked the modules for the USB
one and they seem correct, so I think it could be a problem related
with some X configuration. Below it follows the result:
cartman:~# xawtv
This is xawtv-3.06, running on Linux/i586 (2.3.99-pre6)

Segmentation fault
The questions are:
-With the webcam2 I don't get the "/dev/video: no overlay support"
message. What does this message mean?
-Does this have something to do with the monitor resolution or X
configuration?
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
