Bug#497767: linux-image-2.6.26-1-486: webcams with pwc chipset no long work
 

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-486
Version: 2.6.26-3
Severity: normal


In kernel 2.6.24-1-486 my 'Bus 004 Device 007: ID 046d:08b2 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Pro 4000' webcam worked fine.
In kernel 2.6.26-1-486 it no longer works. When invoked from 'motion' I get the following error in dmesg:
[227011.614298] pwc: Failed to set video mode QSIF@10 fps; return code = -32
[227011.614776] pwc: Failed to set video mode QSIF@10 fps; return code = -32

Hi,
Sorry for the late followup.

The next release of Debian (6.0, code name Squeeze) will be based
on 2.6.32. Please test the current 2.6.32 from unstable/testing and tell
us whether the problem persists. If so, we should report it upstream
to the kernel.org developers.

The 2.6.32 kernel is available from packages.debian.org and can
be installed in both Debian stable, testing and unstable
installations.

Thanks,
Moritz
