22 ProStream video camera working on my Lenovo Thinkstation running CentOS 7. The BIOS was updated and the motherboard was replaced to no avail.

I could then confirm that the camera worked fine if I booted Ubuntu Live, hence 
no hardware issue with the computer, nor the camera which by the way worked 
fine on a laptop also running CentOS 7.

Since the USB subsystem did not recognize the camera when plugged in I reported 
this as a kernel/USB subsystem bug to RedHat. For some reason they made the bug 
private and I have not heard any more about it being worked on...

Howewer, two or so weeks ago I stumbled across 
https://zedt.eu/tech/linux/restarting-usb-subsystem-centos/ and used this 
procedure to reset the USB subsystem. This gets the camera working - most of 
the time...

The OP may want to try the same thing.


Thanks a bunch.  I'll try this when the printer USB port goes dead again.

Cheers
Frank
