I'm testing the VX-1000 model web cam in test builds of Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64 and have found that the gspca drivers allow the microphone to work with a sound recorder initially. However, when I test sound and video together with Cheese, the microphone no longer works and doesn't work again on the computer until the web cam is detached and reattached. I was able to track the events in the system logs as follows: Jul 5 16:49:52 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.122525] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 5 Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.349087] gspca: probing 045e:00f7 Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.361046] sonixj: Sonix chip id: 11 Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.367105] input: sonixj as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/usb2/2-1/input/input5 Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.367172] gspca: video0 created Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.367174] gspca: found int in endpoint: 0x83, buffer_len=1, interval=100 Jul 5 16:49:53 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [104818.367235] gspca: probing 045e:00f7 Jul 5 16:53:35 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105040.981955] gspca: found int in endpoint: 0x83, buffer_len=1, interval=100 Jul 5 16:53:37 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105042.537923] ohci_hcd 0000:00:02.0: leak ed ffff88003796e370 (#81) state 2 Jul 5 16:53:37 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105042.537957] gspca: found int in endpoint: 0x83, buffer_len=1, interval=100 Jul 5 16:53:37 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105042.537960] gspca: bandwidth not wide enough - trying again Jul 5 16:53:37 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105042.564943] gspca: found int in endpoint: 0x83, buffer_len=1, interval=100 Jul 5 16:54:08 kyleabaker-desktop kernel: [105073.800352] gspca: found int in endpoint: 0x83, buffer_len=1, interval=100 I opened Cheese to test sound and video at the 16:53 point. This seems to be unique to x86_64 systems as I'm getting reports that 32-bit users are not having any problems with this, but I don't have a 32-bit install to test myself. The selected input microphone remains the one in the web cam, but the drivers fail or break when it is started with video. -- Kyle Baker -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
