Question

FlashPlayer 10 (Linux): Cannot use all available cameras.

I have just upgraded my Ubuntu 8.04 Linux system to the latest FlashPlayer 10. Unfortunately I cannot select my external Philips SPC900 USB webcam anymore, only the "Laptop internal camera V4L2" is listed. No other application is using this camera. I was always able to choose between both cameras in Flash 9. The interesting thing is that the LEDs on both cameras flash once when the select camera dialog is opened.
Can this be solved, or do I have to wait for Flash 11 ?
