EdwardMorris, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517934 Title: sisusbvga driver does not work with StarTech USB2VGAE2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/517934/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can personally confirm that video on the Tritton XD300 (0711:5100 - Trigger 1+) is functional w/ the drivers on MaX 6.5RC2 w/ max-multiseat package installed. To make it work I had to use a USB to PS2 splitter in the USB port next to the sound input/output jacks. There's a lot of magic done with dynamic xorg.conf and gdm config in the background all wrapping around a libusb based driver set-up that I'm not entirely sure I understand But if we can pump video over usb to a Trigger 1+ with this, I don't see why it couldn't also used for other 0711:5100 devices. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517934 Title: sisusbvga driver does not work with StarTech USB2VGAE2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/517934/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 517934] Re: sisusbvga driver does not work with StarTech USB2VGAE2
I have a similar USB to VGA device that uses sisusbvga and am now having a problem with it in 10.04. It was working perfectly in 9.10 and 9.04. j...@disco2:~$ lsusb Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04f2:0111 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd KU-9908 Keyboard Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 09da:0006 A4 Tech Co., Ltd Optical Mouse WOP-35 / Trust 450L Optical Mouse Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0711:0900 Magic Control Technology Corp. SVGA Adapter Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub So mine has a slightly different ID (compared to above entries) that did not need manually entered into the driver or anything like that to load. What is happening is that it loads fine at start up and appears to be working great until I start to manipulate a window on the display connected to the USB-VGA device. After doing this it will completely lock the machine up and freeze both displays while it shows the mouse cursor flickering and slightly moving back and forth. This does not happen *everytime* I do something on the usb display but it is happening consistently enough to make it completely unusable. When it happens I have to do a hard reboot. dmesg: [ 37.756772] usb 1-4: USB2VGA dongle found at address 4 [ 37.756894] usb 1-4: Allocated 8 output buffers [ 37.941613] usb 1-4: 8MB 1 ch/1 r SDR SDRAM, bus width 32 [ 40.410259] usbcore: registered new interface driver sisusb j...@disco2:/var/log$ cat Xorg.0.log | grep SISUSB (**) |--Screen Screen[SISUSBVGA] (1) (**) | |--Monitor Monitor[SISUSBVGA] (**) | |--Device Device[SISUSBVGA] (II) SISUSB: driver for SiSUSB chipsets: SIS315E/PRO USB (II) SISUSB(1): SiSUSB driver (2005/09/28-1, compiled for X.org 1.7.2.0) (II) SISUSB(1): Copyright (C) 2001-2005 Thomas Winischhofer tho...@winischhofer.net (II) SISUSB(1): *** See http://www.winischhofer.at/linuxsisusbvga.shtml (II) SISUSB(1): *** for documentation and updates.

[Bug 517934] Re: sisusbvga driver does not work with StarTech USB2VGAE2
So, heres a long sad journey to get this thing to
work right, I bet you won't be surprised with the results.
SYSTEM: ThinkPad T500 with ATI 3650 HD
I bought the StarTech.com USB2VGAE2 adapter after finding and article on
the Ubuntu wiki that explains that it might actually work. So first
thing to try was to do a simple
Code:
sudo modprobe sisusbvga
believing that the driver is built in. Hooked up the device and the
result :
FAIL!
So I went ahead and did a
Code:
lsusb
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0711:5100 Magic Control Technology Corp.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 17ef:4807 Lenovo
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 08ff:2810 AuthenTec, Inc.
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
So I see that its detecting the device just fine, but doing nothing
Code:
dmesg
[1.501358] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
[1.658718] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
So, I download the kernel source code to check out the driver related
files and sisusb.c (./drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga in the kernel
source) and I couldn't find the VIDID for my device listed (see lsusb
output above) so I add it to source
Code:
.
...
static struct usb_device_id sisusb_table [] = {
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0550) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x5100) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0900) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0901) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0902) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0903) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0711, 0x0918) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x182d, 0x021c) },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x182d, 0x0269) },
{ }
};
...
.
Then I compiled it
Code:
sudo make menuconfig
make
Then I took a back up of the existing
/lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusbvga.ko
and replaced it with the freshly compiled one. Reboot and,
Code:
sudo modprobe sisusbvga
dmesg
usbcore: registered new interface driver sisusb
Hookup the device and
Code:
usb 2-2: USB2VGA dongle found at address 2 :D
usb 2-2: Allocated 8 output buffers :D
usb 2-2: Failed to early initialize device :(
Result : JACKS***
