There seems to be no consistent way of making the webcam work repeatedly across reboots. Sometimes it connects at 480Mbps, and works correctly at all resolutions, sometimes at 12Mbps and only works correctly at low resolutions, (higher resolutions get a lot of green lines splattered across video, and is unstable), sometimes connects at 12Mbps with no associated /dev/videox entry, (I also have tv card for the other /dev/videox entry), and sometimes fails altogether during boot.
If it doesn't work, it is unlikely to work unless I add/delete packages (eg update-manager updates) or I fiddle with /etc/default/irqbalance parameters. Once it is working, it is unlikely to remain working across reboots, either shutdown/startup or reboot. Given that it worked perfectly in karmic, it would hint at something in boot procedure. Maverick is more likely to produce working webcam, but it has worked properly under lucid. (not as likely though) -- webcam "device initialization failed" in lucid (needs high-speed USB 2.0 port) but has worked in past on lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/622168 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
