Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vlc

VLC 1.01 can capture the video stream from my adaptec videooh! 2010 pci card.
vlc 1.02 can not, the error is 

[0x978a868] main input error: open of `v4l2://dev/video0' failed: (null)

 Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'v4l2://'. Check the log for details.
