[PD] Webcam not working in Gridflow on Ubuntu

[Stefan Donchev]

I'm trying to get my webcam working in Gridflow 9.12 under Ubuntu 11.4. It
works with GEM, not with Gridflow.

GEM gives the following output in the Pd window when I open pix_video:
[pix_video]: video driver 0: video4linux2 v4l2
[pix_video]: video driver 1: video4linux v4l
[pix_video]: video driver 2: ieee1394 dv4l dv

When I open the #camera help patch, I get the following output in the Pd
window:
print: symbol sdl
error: constructor: ioctl VIDIOCGCAP: Invalid argument
error: constructor: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
camera supports palettes :
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCSWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_colorspace: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
request use of palette 15
error: _0_colorspace: ioctl VIDIOCSPICT: Invalid argument
error: _0_colorspace: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
print: symbol videodev
error: contrast: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
error: colour: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
error: brightness: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
error: hue: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
error: whiteness: ioctl VIDIOCGPICT: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCSWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCSWIN: Invalid argument
error: _0_size: ioctl VIDIOCGWIN: Invalid argument


Changing the settings for #camera does not help.

Does anyone have any suggestions what could keep the camera from working
with Gridflow when it does work with GEM in the same installation of Pd?
