Subject: USB webcam UVC driver crashing
Date: Thu, 10 May 2012 16:18:11 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FAC3EA3.5080105@telusplanet.net> (raw)
Hi. I have a USB webcam ID 1e4e:0102. I can start it and it runs (I
can start various webcam applications eg: cheese, mplayer, guvcview),
and it works ok for a few minutes, but then crashes. When it crashes, it
usually breaks all of USB too, and occasionally the whole machine. It
can be the only application running and crash the machine (but in one
instance it was 1150 seconds after starting, in another instance 453
seconds after starting). Some information from kern.log:

I also have a snip of dmesg.log, but its similar to the kern.log posted
above.
Sorry for the long post. My system: Linux Freedom 3.4.0-rc6 #1 SMP
PREEMPT Mon May 7 17:11:54 MDT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Its not a debug kernel (but I can build one and re-run things if needed).
Its not a new bug, its been doing it for several kernels. I have a
different webcam that doesn't crash (doesn't use the UVC drivers), but
the images it produces are drech.
Please mail me directly as I'm not on the list.
TIA,
Bob
