usb in Kernel 2.6.[35]

2004-05-02 Thread H. S.
I recently installed Kernel-2.6.5. In Kernel 2.4.24 I was able to 
transfer pictures from my ditical camera by gphoto2 (using the usermap 
in /etc/hotplug/usb and setting things up so that members of usbcamera 
could use gphoto2 to transfer pics from the USB camera). The module 
being used for this was usb-uhci.

In kernels 2.6.5 and 2.6.3 though, I am not able to transfer the pics 
anymore. gphoto2 doesn't see any camera. Also, I see that there is no 
usb-uhci module loaded anymore. Only uhci-hcd (IIRC) and usbcore and 
ehci-hcd. What am I missing here? Where can I find documentation that 
explains this.

Thanks,
-HS

I don't know why your camera isn't working any more, but I can help with
the modules questions: to my knowledge, usb-uhci has simply been renamed
to uhci-hcd. The ehci-hcd module is for USB 2.0 support; USB 2.0
controllers apparently generally have companion controllers which are
UHCI or OHCI, so you get both modules.

HTH,

So, theoritically, I only need ehci-hcd to use USB 1.0 devices? And 
uhci-hdc or ohci-hcd if I want to use USB 2.0 devices as well? BTW, I 
also noticed that there is a usbcore module that uses uhci-hcd in 2.6.5 
kernel.

The other way round.

 BTW, I also noticed that there is a usbcore module that uses uhci-hcd
 in 2.6.5 kernel.

usbcore is the bottom layer of USB support, required in order to use USB
at all. See the help entry for Support for USB in the kernel
configuration.
