Title:
webcam regression after 2.6.32 under vmware
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
In a OS X 10.6.8 host, vmware fusion 4.1.1 Lucid guest, USB webcams
which worked fine before, no longer work under natty or oneiric. I
have yet to get *any* webcam to work in natty or oneiric using the
default kernel under vmware; they do work in a standard non vmware
setting.
The devices appear as /dev/video devices and sometimes programs (e.g.
guvcview, opencv programs) can display a few images. But the image
stream freezes after a few seconds, often with "select timeout"
repeatedly printed to the console. syslog also contains repeated
failed to resubmit video URB (-27)
messages. I have tested logitech webcam pro 9000, iSight, and Kinect.
All have this issue. I have tested the default natty and oneiric
kernels as well as mainline 3.0.22 and 3.1.4 from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/.
This may be related to 682128, 729627, 879700, 834506.
WORKAROUND: Revert to kernel 2.6.32-38 in oneiric. Manually download
linux-headers-2.6.32-38_2.6.32-38.83_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.32-38-generic-pae_2.6.32-38.83_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.32-38-generic-pae_2.6.32-38.83_i386.deb
from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux and install with dpkg.
Hold SHIFT while rebooting, select the 2.6.32 kernel. sudo vmware-
config-tools.pl as usual. If networkmanager fails to bring up eth0
then add
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
to /etc/network/interfaces and sudo ifup -a.
