Hmmm, which driver for the camera do you use? I get the following:

[lugburz:ppregler!221] vic localhost/8000
V4l: trying /dev/video0... ok, CPiA Camera
V4l:   color; size: 48x48 => 352x288
V4l:   ports: Camera
V4l:   depth=24, palette=rgb24
V4l:  ==> format { 411 422 cif } size { small cif } port { Camera } 
V4l: trying /dev/video1... open: No such device
V4l: trying /dev/video2... open: No such device
V4l: trying /dev/video3... open: No such device
v4l: mmap()'ed buffer size = 0xc6000

So at least with the latest 0.7.3 it is still working. This should not be
a parport/usb issue since all that stuff about yuyv etc. is in the generic
cpia-layer. My version of vic is the standard debian-potato package
version: 2.8ucl4-2.

Greetings, Peter
