gnomemeeting crashed, now i got "video0: Device or resource busy"
B
Hi, was trying to see people from the netmeeting world by using gnomemeeting, everything has been working fine, and suddently the program had no respond, so i had to issue a Kill command to take gnomemeeting away.
after that, everytime when i start gnomemeeting, it'll crash whenever i try to accept a call from someone, or i try to call someone else. And the root causing problem I've discover has to do with /dev/video and /dev/video0 (they are same thing, symbolic link) root@localhost dev]# cat video cat: video: Device or resource busy [root@localhost dev]# cat video0 cat: video0: Device or resource busy [root@localhost dev]# if I had to chase and see where that leads to: [root@localhost dev]# ls -l video lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 10 Jan 10 02:21 video -> v4l/video0 [root@localhost dev]# ls -l video0 lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 10 Jan 10 02:21 video0 -> v4l/video0 [root@localhost dev]# now i'm at: root@localhost v4l]# pwd /lib/dev-state/v4l [root@localhost v4l]# root@localhost v4l]# cat video0 cat: video0: Device or resource busy so... problem now seems locate at /lib/dev-state/v41 and i'm thinking maybe the kill command i issued only killed the gnomemeeting, but not the access to the device itself, what should I be doing next step, to get my webcam start working again? should i remove video0 and reinstall it? or is there way i can actually kill the resources? p.s: i tried rebooting the computer, or issue a cammand "fuser /dev/video0" and still not helping heheheh thank you |
