Hi!
I'd have an Exibel snakescope TF2808 which dont make any picure on
Linux. It worked ok on windows, but I do not have windows installed
any longer. I do not think there have happened something to the camera
meanwhile, I'd think the camera is OK. The driver seems to be ok too:

I'd have tried tvtime and xawtv as viewing application, same result on
both; blank screen and various error messages.
tvtime comes up with an blue screen "no signal","Frames too short from
pac7311" and "cannot open capture device /dev/video0".
xawtv started from an terminal outputs this and hangs:
sigmund@sigmund-laptop:~$ xawtv -device /dev/video0

syslog also came up with two new lines:

Tried an Creative Live! cam on the same machine and it works ok.

I do not have any idea nor what to do now, nor how the error could be
further traced down. Hopefully there's somebody on the list who can
help me.
Cincerely,
Sigmund Skjelnes
