Hello, I recently updated my old 2006 Asus A6VM notebook with the latest 32bit Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (kernel 4.15.0) and found out that the driver for the webcam (Syntek USB2.0, USB ID 174f:a311) was not working. I only got error messages like "Sensor resetting failed" in dmesg when starting guvcview for example. Far from being an expert for video devices, I tried to debug this and figured out three patches to make the webcam work again on my old notebook (at least I get a video again ;-). I know the type of notebook and webcam is pretty old and the driver seems not to be actively maintained anymore although still being part of actual kernel versions. Is there still an interest in getting patches for such an old device? If yes, I could try to rebase my patches to the actual version of media_tree.git and post them to the mailing list. Kind regards, Andreas
