Confirmed BlessN900 works too.

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

a new kernel again power44?? with uboot

I updated it to power44 and installed the Fcam drivers givin bij titan; http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58899&page=4

but still it doesnt work anymore ??

and no i dont have blessn900 app installed

help please

EDIT

delete the Fcam drivers if you updated to kernel power44 i think that the fcam is in the kernel..

so it works again :D

this time with uboot in the kernel, nice titan

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

Do I have to uninstall multiboot to work with uboot? (I think yes...)

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

i didnt have multiboor or anything installed, uboot only worked with the stock kernel, but this time titan has added uboot into his new kernel POWER 44..

so it is possible to use uboot with a modified kernel :D

so guys lets start installing meego .. yaay !

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

I uninstalled multiboot, updated power kernel, and...it works! :D

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

Just a note of explanation on what the issues between fcam-drivers and power-kernel actually are:

It comes down a single kernel version string check in the Linux kernel module installer. It's strict about compatibility, and won't let you install a kernel module unless it was compiled for the _exact_ kernel you're currently running.

So, every time there's a new version of Titan's kernel, we (the fcam devs) have to make sure Titan's uploaded the new kernel-headers package, and then we just need to increment our version number by one (so that we can resubmit it), and upload fcam-drivers into the repositories again. That way it'll get built correctly for the latest power kernel.

There's many problems with this whole thing, though: we have no real way to get people to update fcam-drivers (since it's not a user package), and if you want to keep running the older power kernel, the new fcam-drivers won't work for you - and as far as I know, I can't have two versions of fcam-drivers in the repo at the same time.

So we'll hopefully get the new version of fcam-drivers up soon - it'll be exactly identical to the previous one, just with the correct kernel version string embedded.

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

Many thanks. Both the stock camera app and bless n900 working with v42 for me with this driver.

great stuff.

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

still stuck on crashing camera here.
contantly getting this error which prevents me to install anything:

happens to everything i attemt to install.
Some seems broken in the kernel. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling but all stays stuck on error.

any hints on how to get things fixed?

EDIT:
found solution:, dpkg was corrupted.
fixed:

sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/available

cp /var/lib/dpkg/available-old /var/lib/dpkg/available

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

all updates installed fine now.
camera working again, same as h-e-n
happy man here :)

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

i had both FCam and BessN900 (sp?) installed on my device. When i try to install these new drivers i get "Unable to install 'fcam-drivers' Incompatible application package. Tried running both FCam and Bess, and Bess wouldn't start, while FCam started and froze. The scary bit came when i tried to run the native camera app. It wouldn't start either. i uninstalled FCam and Bess and the old FCAM drivers using app manager, and now the original camera app runs again. Tried again to install these new FCam drivers, and still get the 'incompatible app' message.

Re: fCamera and Titans kernel...
 

I got same problem, Im trying uninstalling fcam to see if it works

Ill let you know in a bit
