Hi,
I have an interesting problem -- or hopefully just a question.
I have a Creative WebCam Live! and I'm trying to make it work on my Dell
600m notebook. The camera actually works fine if I plug it in directly
into a notebook's USB port. However, I'd like the camera attached to my
Dell's Advanced Port Replicator (model PR01K), which is not working and
hence this e-mail.
As you can see below, the port replicator has three 2.0 USB UHCI ports
and
one EHCI. For power reasons I am obviously connecting to the latter (I
also tried the other ones w/o success).
Thus, I'd like to know if this is a *bug* or if simply the port
replicator
cannot support 'it' (for some reason I'd like to know). By 'it', I am
not sure if the problem is specific only to my webcam or it is a general
problem such as: 1.1 isoc transfers on 2.0 USB ports, etc. Note that the
webcam is a 1.1 USB device and the docking ports are 2.0. However, my
notebook ports are 2.0 too. In sum, I'm not sure how to present this
problem except to say that it doesn't work with my webcam.
I've attached pretty much everything I could think of below. Even the
diff
of 'strace gqcam' between: attached to my notebook directly (working)
and attached to the docking station (not working).
The error I get is a -ENOSYS (Function not implemented) as you can see
on the dmesg log and the 'strace gqcam' output. I don't know exactly
which 'function'(ality) it is actually trying to access.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Andre
