This issue seems to be gradually getting fixed on my system (Dell Dimension 4700 with BIOS Rev. A10). In contrast wit the experience of Alessio Treglia's (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux- source-2.6.20/+bug/125250/comments/12 ), all of the USB problems seem to be resolved for me if I use kernel release 2.6.24-19-generic (Hardy).
I'm not sure if one or more automatic update(s) have changed something. I have the Proposed repository enabled, and I always accept kernel- and driver-related updates. I've noticed that there have been quite a few changes to 2.6.24-19-generic that start out in Proposed and eventually make their way to Recommended. Even mounting the USB camera works in 2.6.24-19-generic for me, but only after following the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4979460&postcount=2 With kernel 2.6.20-16-generic (Hardy), everything seems to work, except that the USB camera importing errors out -- images are listed in F-Spot, but fail to actually import. I'm not sure if this is an issue in F-Spot or something to do with the more general USB bug that is the main topic of this discussion. (I can provide more details on the error if it would help.) I got into kernel issues originally due to Hibernate/Suspend problems, and unfortunately 2.6.24-19-generic still does not do it for me. For now, I boot into 2.6.24-19-generic if I need to import photos, and restart into 2.6.20-16-generic if I need to be able to Suspend/Hibernate. -- Don't recognise USB Pendrive -> sr0: disc change detected. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125250 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
