I look after a couple of U100s but have not been able to risk installing Karmic after reading the release notes and problems I had using the LiveCD.
Both ran the webcam (5986:0203) happily under Hardy and Jaunty although I had to load a different version of the uvcvideo driver used for the bison webcam to that supplied in Hardy and repeat the procedure after every kernel update. Are we sure it is just the latest uvcvideo driver which is at fault here? Has that been confirmed by testing with a different version of the driver compiled and loaded in the way I had to for Hardy? I wrote the procedure for Hardy up at http://www.pcurtis.com/wind.htm#webcam - I can try it with Karmic but I not sure it will work on the LiveCD and I dare not load the full system until the two bugs are sorted. I agree with earlier comments that these bugs are a disaster for Ubuntu especially now that the U100 is on offer from Argos for about £200 for the Xmas season and need to be fixed not talked about. In the meantime users of Winds should be warned not to upgrade and new users should load Jaunty. -- regression: uvcvideo module makes "cannot reset port" error on usb with bison webcam (5986:0203): USB and suspend fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435352 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
