Yes, the scanner enumerates and can be seen on the bus, but it locks up and can't complete a page scan. Keyboards, cameras, and other gear work fine on the rear ports. They seem to have the same internal hub chips on both sets of ports. Jon -- Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?

Re: [Emc-users] uvcvideo vs v4l video
Sam, re: front panel usb ports poor design i've seen frequent disconnects and reconnects, even re-enumerating ( i think ) changing ttyUSB0 to ttyUSB1 on the dongle i use to talk to machines. avoid any usb port that 'feels odd', 'feels loose' or where connector looks like it sticks out _not_ square i see the disconnect in dmesg tomp On 07/25/2014 10:09 PM, sam sokolik wrote: I have seen front usb ports that use very poor wiring/board layout.

After my experience trying to make a wired usb mouse keyboard work on the front panel of the other of those same boxes, and having to move both to the rear to make them work, I tend to agree with that. Usb breakouts for the front panel must be crap. Oddly enough a wireless logitek plugged into the front panel did work, most of the time.

[Emc-users] uvcvideo vs v4l video
Greetings; My camera on the milling machine is having spastic spells. Dmesg says its disconnecting but I see no evidence of that as being a mechanical cable problem. None of the disconnect/reconnect sessions can be blamed on my moving the usb cable that hooks it up. Its the only video device in the system other than the i915 on the D-525MW mainboard. And when it comes back up, it comes back up as /dev/video1, not /dev/video0 which is I believe where it started. The camera is configured to use /dev/v41, and after the failure all the by-id and by- path links in /dev/v4l are links to /dev/video1. Camview can't switch as it is configured to use v4l2:0, and goes into about 10 lines a second of reporting the failure message. How can I make it (=camview) even mouthier so that it might spit out the real problem that caused the usb disconnect? Thanks.
