I've a Compaq Armada 1530 Pentium MMX laptop I'd like to use as "webcam
server". I have a Philips VestaPRO usb webcam, but the pc doesn't have any
usb port. So I tried using a PCMCIA USB2.0 card from Hama (?), loading
kernel modules OHCI and EHCI. Everything goes fine, the pwc webcam module
loads correctly and create the video4linux device. But when I try to
access the webcam with any program, the computer stalls. No Ctrl+c, no
console switch, nothing. But if I remove the card the pc comes back to
life (obviously with some nice error messages saying I removed the cam
when it was being accessed)!
I've tried the same configuration, even with the same modules (using
kernel 2.6.3), on a Compaq E500 laptop and works fine, I can grab images.
Is it possible that the usb2 is not supported by the Pentium 1? The person
who gave me the card used it on a Win98 system, and with its drivers works
perfectly (probably as usb1).
Anyone has an idea of what the problem can be?
Thanks Maxxer
