phriedrich:

The camera is a SiPix StyleCam Deluxe. It's listed but when it starts to connect the lockup accrues.

I just saw in the "http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/Mandrake92";

   * /Error Scenario/: *When plugging a USB webcam (some Philips
     webcam's, maybe others), system locks solid*

Why
There is a kernel bug when auto-loading the snd-usb-audio module. Solution
Use ThomasBacklund
<http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/ThomasBacklund>'s
kernel (packages beginning by "kernel-tmb" in contrib) until
an update kernel might contain the fix as well.



Looks like it's a known problem. Guess i"ll wait until it's fixed in the next kernel release.


Thanks

Larry

Hi Larry,

whats the name of the camera? Did the Camera worked in 9.1?
Or does this occur with every camera you test?
