[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1956461] Re: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work
Interestingly, I looked deeper and even before I wrote the comment above, the patch had already been added to the 5.10 and 5.15 stable trees. It seems that for some reason it wasn't added to the 5.4 tree. Weird...I wonder if it doesn't cleanly apply or something. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956461 Title: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After installing kernel 5.4.0-92 the webcam Creative HD720p stop to be seen by the system.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1956461] Re: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work
Technically this fix hasn't actually landed in an official kernel yet. Right now they are in the part of the cycle where they release weekly release candidate builds of 5.17. This fix first showed up in v5.17-rc3. I would expect v5.17-rc6 to be released today, and the final 5.17 to be released in (early?) March. I'm not an expert at Ubuntu's release processes, but I went through a similar wait on a different bug fix. Here is my understanding of the process of this fix getting into Ubuntu's 5.4 kernel: The patch was CC'd to linux-stable. I would expect it to be accepted as a stable patch, because it fixes a regression. It doesn't appear to have been accepted yet. Once it is accepted as a stable patch, it should show up in this tree: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/?h=linux-5.4.y Then, a new 5.4.x stable mainline kernel will be released containing it. Sometime after that, Ubuntu should automatically pick up the patch into their kernel. I'm not sure if there's a way to speed up the process to get them to cherry-pick just this fix sooner. It is a seriously annoying regression! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956461 Title: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After installing kernel 5.4.0-92 the webcam Creative HD720p stop to be seen by the system.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1956461] Re: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work
I believe this bug was caused by this commit in the kernel: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/sound/usb/quirks- table.h?id=48827e1d6af58f219e89c7ec08dccbca28c7694e A patch to fix the issue was committed to the kernel 11 days ago: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/sound/usb/quirks- table.h?id=4ee02e20893d2f9e951c7888f2284fa608ddaa35 It appears that the problem is that after the buggy original patch, the snd-usb-audio module takes over the entire webcam and prevents the uvcvideo driver from accessing it. No idea how long it will take Ubuntu to bring this patch into their kernels. In the meantime, I'm assuming you could work around it by doing something like this (with the webcam plugged in) to force the uvcvideo driver to load first: sudo modprobe -r snd-usb-audio sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo sudo modprobe uvcvideo sudo modprobe snd-usb-audio -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956461 Title: Creative HD720p webcam doesn't work Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After installing kernel 5.4.0-92 the webcam Creative HD720p stop to be seen by the system.
