I am trying to make a logitech 4000 webcama work with my linux-box ( Debian testing and my own 2.4.21 kernel). I have a k7s5a motherboard with two working EHCI ports, but I also have a Sitecom USB 1.1 / 2.0 card with a four port (OHCI and EHCI).
If I try to use the webcam with OHCI, then I can get a few pictures, but after a while I get a a v4l timeout. I have heard that this freeze is due to a known bug, but I am a little uncertain on whether or not it has been fixed. Is it possible to run PWC with USB-OHCI? The details of my freeze can be found here http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=rLkK.3r9.3%40gated-at.bofh.it I have also tried to detect the camera using only the kernel module EHCI-HCD. However the modules does not detect my camera (details below). Is it possible to run PWC with EHCI-HCD? Is there a trick? I have been trying hard to find an UHCI card, but it looks like everything is OHCI or EHCI these days. Are UHCI cards still available? I could really use some advice on where I should go from here. Thanks in advance Niels Here is a test in which I insmod ehci-hcd, and try to locate the webcam. I don't know if this data is useful at all, but now I included it anyway. In this test I also load the pwcx module (compiled for 2.4.20), but I can get the same results if I disable the loading of this module in my /etc/modules.conf nissefisken# lsmod Module Size Used by Tainted: PF pwcx-2.4.20 86816 0 (autoclean) (unused) pwc 44748 0 (autoclean) [pwcx-2.4.20] nvidia 1628576 11 (autoclean) sis900 14412 0 (unused) i810_audio 25756 3 ac97_codec 11892 0 [i810_audio] soundcore 4260 2 [i810_audio] ehci-hcd 25644 0 (unused) usbcore 73036 0 [pwc ehci-hcd] i2c-proc 7344 0 (unused) i2c-core 13892 0 [i2c-proc] parport_pc 13732 1 (autoclean) lp 6592 1 parport 16096 1 [parport_pc lp] 8139too 15912 1 rtc 7464 0 (autoclean) nissefisken# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 735 Host (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS 530 Virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge (AGP) 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 85C503/5513 00:02.2 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7001 USB Controller (rev 07) 00:02.3 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7001 USB Controller (rev 07) 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] (rev d0) 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7012 PCI Audio Accelerator (rev a0) 00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 10/100 Ethernet (rev 90) 00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
