Every so often, I totally fluke it and running xawtv produces a perfect real 
time image from my logitech quickam express.

ditto using Sane's scanimage

On most reboots however, using what I think are identical means of setting 
the usb camera up, xawtv simply shows a black screen. no errors, nada.

I *think* the problem is either in the X server, or, in one of the higher 
non-usb modules such as videodev. The usb component modules report no errors, 
and indeed, using debugs and tracing, the video stream coming from the camera 
seems 100% ok.

But, I'm lost chasing a paper trail trying to find why the image has gone 
black when image data is indeed getting thru the usb driver subsystem.

I am reasonably certain the modules loaded and the paramaters, in fact 
everything i do is identical, working and non-working. I *think* the problem 
is order of loading or some sequence like that (eg starting usbcore too 
early,  whatever)

Is someone here on on the usb mailgroup or anywhere else, that has seen this 
problem before?
