o For the last year I've been running a system with a Kensington webcam (se401 driver) and a Philips webcam (pwc/pwcx driver). After much patching on my part and lots of help from this list, I got a 2.4.9-ac12 kernel, built on top of a RedHat 7.1 install, using uhci (not usb-uhci), to be fairly stable.
o Recently the system lost its drive (hardware failure) which gave me an excuse to upgrade the O.S. SuSE 8.0 installed a "2.4.18-4GB" kernel which runs fine using a USB mouse. o Neither of the webcams works with this kernel. Both uhci and usb- uhci fail with various infinite-loop log messages and register dumps. o I tried building and installing 2.4.19-pre10-ac2 and it's worse -- it doesn't even see the mouse, even if nothing else is plugged into USB. Again, a variety of error messages, with both drivers. o I'm going to try plain 2.4.19-pre10 and see what happens. I've kept up my subscription to this and the -devel list for the past year, and from what I've seen there seems to be some thrashing going on with the drivers. I suppose I could go back to 2.4.9-ac12 with my patches, but I'm not even sure that will run with the SuSE 8.0 hotplugging, etc. o Any suggestions for a (relatively) stable kernel to try are welcome. If anyone's interested in logs, I can provide them, too. -- MARK [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
