Public bug reported:
I've got an Asus Eee PC 901, which has a built-in camera from Genesys
Logic, Inc. ( ID 05e3:0505 ). It uses the uvcvideo driver.
The uvcvideo driver doesn't play nicely with suspend. Now, this isn't
normally a problem, because the module will get unloaded and reloaded
automatically. But if the module (i.e. the camera) is in use at the time
by some program (e.g. cheese, skype, mplayer, whatever), that won't
happen. Instead, the program using the camera will exhibit erratic
behavior and usually crash, and the camera itself will give no video to
any program until a reboot. I can't even do a "sudo rmmod uvcvideo"
after this happens, it just hangs.
1) Using ubuntu 8.04
2) sorry, don't know what package uvcvideo is in.
3) expected to resume from suspend and resume the video feed to the program,
or, failing that, to be able to restart the program and have video work.
4) video would not work for any program until after a reboot.
