Hi,
    I am using a lxc-ubuntu container in a ubuntu 11.10 host OS. An
application running in a container requires camera access . Currently
I have a USB based webcam which mount as /dev/video0 in my host.I
tried giving access to the device by adding the  line
"lxc.cgroup.allow=c 81:0 rwm" in my lxc config file. But still getting
error msg "mknod:/dev/video0 Operation not permitted" in my container.
Can anyone give me a solution  in accessing camera inside a container?
