Hi
Just wanted to ask Canonical guys: It's encouraging to see some activity
on this ticket, is there any chance this will actually get into Ubuntu
before next .04 release? (Or, if next release is an LTS, is there any
chance this will get in right after that?)
(Yeah, I'm lazy, I don't even compile
Teq, can you clarify your above message a bit? The submitted patch works
and fixes the problem and has been confirmed by many. If you have
evidence to the contrary, please report the specific errors you see. If
you do, please also attach the output of the command "lsusb" to verify

Patching and building your own kernel is indeed a bit non-trivial. Some
guides were written already earlier in this thread. Personally I've used
this process: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel
A good first step is to simply check out the right ubuntu kernel,
compile it and reboot,
Progress is unfortunately slow. The work to be done is minimal, but
response time from the maintainer has been in months. I guess this is a
reflection of Linux being mostly a server OS, and the desktop side being
developed in people's free time.
I would have had higher hopes for Canonical applying
Please note that while the above "quirk based" patch by gmiscko does
make the Acer Integrated Camera work, it is an earlier attempt at the
fix which was not approved by the UVC maintainer. The patch that has
been signed off and sent towards upstream maintainers attempts to fix
the brokenness in a g
Hi
The update is that after receiving the latest review (which itself took
some time), it's taken quite long for me to context switch back to
implement the requested changes. I do have an editor open in front of me
right now, so hopefully it can happen in the next few days.

Thanks Brad :-) Maybe a little encouragement was all I needed, because a
new patch was now sent to the mailing list:

Hi
Thanks for providing the test kernel to people! I have also installed it
and successfully tested. (Even I don't always recompile my own patch
from source every time there's an upgrade.)
The patch status is that the uvcvideo maintainer has signed-off on it,
and forwarded it to linux-media maili
Update: The patch got a 3rd signed-off-by and is now queued for
inclusion upstream. (But if I understand the kernel process correctly,
that can only happen when 4.10 merge window opens?)

Hi Joseph
The patch has landed in this repository:
https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git/log/
While I have no experience with this process, I was speculating that
this entire branch will be pulled into mainline when the next merge
window opens. But like I said, I don't actually know what to expe
Hi
I've been analyzing this and proposed some solutions. See
http://sourceforge.net/p/linux-uvc/mailman/message/34681976/
I don't know what the kernel maintainers want from a fix, but for those
of us who use (K)ubuntu on a Lenovo, I think it would make us very happy
to simply do my last proposal:

Hi
I've submitted a patch that fixes this issue. Maybe give it a few days
for comments, but would be great if Ubuntu could incorporate this patch
ahead of upstream, since a lot of us seem to be using Lenovo. (Thinkpad
