I have the same problem: in Jaunty the Creative PC-CAM 600 webcam does not work anymore. This is a fresh Jaunty installation. The webcam was working in a previous release such Feisty so the bug is a regression.
At each connect I get this message: abramo kernel: [ 3031.407320] usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 9 abramo kernel: [ 3042.244054] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 10 abramo kernel: [ 3042.510182] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice abramo kernel: [ 3042.513457] gspca: probing 041e:400b abramo kernel: [ 3043.012972] sunplus: reg write: error -110 abramo kernel: [ 3043.587880] gspca: probe ok abramo kernel: [ 3043.588921] gspca: probing 041e:400b abramo kernel: [ 3044.033373] gspca: disconnect complete I need to reload the gspca_sunplus module manully each time I connect the webcam: sudo modprobe -r gspca_sunplus sudo modprobe gspca_sunplus in order to have the correct creation of /dev/video0. The log message while unloading/reloading the module is: abramo kernel: [ 3140.197307] usbcore: deregistering interface driver sunplus abramo kernel: [ 3140.204126] sunplus: deregistered abramo kernel: [ 3140.209516] gspca: main deregistered abramo kernel: [ 3149.946656] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 abramo kernel: [ 3149.963714] gspca: main v2.3.0 registered abramo kernel: [ 3149.971319] gspca: probing 041e:400b abramo kernel: [ 3150.586091] gspca: probe ok abramo kernel: [ 3150.586134] gspca: probing 041e:400b abramo kernel: [ 3150.586180] usbcore: registered new interface driver sunplus abramo kernel: [ 3150.586189] sunplus: registered After the module reloading the webcam works well with Cheese and xawtv. However with skype and ekiga the image quality in very poor (dark) at a level that I can hardly distinguish any shape. I'll be happy to provide any further information. -- GSPCA webcam no longer working: no /dev/video0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
