Public bug reported: My webcam is the Logitech Quickcam Express. When it is plugged in to my laptop running Fiesty, the webcam light goes on, but lsusb does not detect it:
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 dmesg produces a lot of these lines: [ 1683.304000] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 15 [ 1683.484000] usb 2-1: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1683.768000] usb 2-1: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1684.048000] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 16 [ 1684.456000] usb 2-1: device not accepting address 16, error -62 [ 1684.632000] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 17 [ 1685.040000] usb 2-1: device not accepting address 17, error -62 Not only that, the webcam was detected only a few days ago, and now there's nothing. My other usb devices are detected with no problems. To aid in this debugging, I have followed all the steps here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingRemovableDevices As I can't find the option to attach the files made by following the above link, I'll have to copy-and-paste them here. The files are: gvm.log, devices.txt, and lshal.txt (dmesg i've posted the relavant lines above). gvm.log: manager.c/647: setting[0]: bool: autobrowse = 0 manager.c/647: setting[1]: bool: autoburn = 0 manager.c/642: setting[2]: string: autoburn_audio_cd_command = serpentine manager.c/642: setting[3]: string: autoburn_data_cd_command = nautilus --no-desktop burn: manager.c/647: setting[4]: bool: autoipod = 0 manager.c/642: setting[5]: string: autoipod_command = rhythmbox manager.c/647: setting[6]: bool: autokeyboard = 0 manager.c/642: setting[7]: string: autokeyboard_command = manager.c/647: setting[8]: bool: automount_drives = 1 manager.c/647: setting[9]: bool: automount_media = 1 manager.c/647: setting[10]: bool: automouse = 0 manager.c/642: setting[11]: string: automouse_command = manager.c/647: setting[12]: bool: autoopen = 0 manager.c/642: setting[13]: string: autoopen_path = .autoopen:autoopen manager.c/647: setting[14]: bool: autophoto = 1 manager.c/642: setting[15]: string: autophoto_command = gnome-volume-manager-gthumb %h manager.c/647: setting[16]: bool: autopalmsync = 0 manager.c/642: setting[17]: string: autopalmsync_command = gpilotd-control-applet manager.c/647: setting[18]: bool: autoplay_cda = 0 manager.c/642: setting[19]: string: autoplay_cda_command = gnome-cd manager.c/647: setting[20]: bool: autoplay_dvd = 1 manager.c/642: setting[21]: string: autoplay_dvd_command = totem -f dvd:// manager.c/647: setting[22]: bool: autoplay_vcd = 1 manager.c/642: setting[23]: string: autoplay_vcd_command = totem %m manager.c/647: setting[24]: bool: autopocketpc = 0 manager.c/642: setting[25]: string: autopocketpc_command = multisync manager.c/647: setting[26]: bool: autoprinter = 0 manager.c/642: setting[27]: string: autoprinter_command = gnome-cups-add hal://%h manager.c/647: setting[28]: bool: autorun = 0 manager.c/642: setting[29]: string: autorun_path = .autorun:autorun:autorun.sh manager.c/647: setting[30]: bool: autotablet = 0 manager.c/642: setting[31]: string: autotablet_command = manager.c/656: settings[32]: float: percent_threshold = 0.050000 manager.c/656: settings[33]: float: percent_used = 0.010000 devices.txt is blank because the command in the above link produced this result: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /dev/sd* > devices.txt ls: /dev/sd*: No such file or directory lshal.txt is 1715 lines long.
