Hi,

I did not get any response.

Is my case hopeless?

Thanks

Best regards

Objet: uvcvideo: Failed to query (129)

Hi,

I've got a problem with my webcam. It used to work and does not anymore. I cannot say if it has worked with my present ubuntu or only before my last upgrade.
I cannot say if my webcam is dead or if it's a linux issue. Bus as far as some commands seems to recognize the webcam, I suspect (and hope) it works...

I've found uvcvideo FAQ with the same subject, but no solution.

I have:
[ 8615.467941] Linux video capture interface: v2.00
[ 8615.481217] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device HP Webcam-101 (0408:0f41)
[ 8615.481222] uvcvideo: Forcing device quirks to 0x100 by module parameter for testing purpose.
[ 8615.481223] uvcvideo: Please report required quirks to the linux-uvc-devel mailing list.
[ 8615.482002] uvcvideo: Failed to query (129) UVC probe control : -32 (exp. 26).

[ 8615.482077] usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo
[ 8615.482080] USB Video Class driver (1.1.1)

(Note I have a failure also when emptying /etc/modprobe.d/uvcvideo.conf)

I'm presently working with
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4300 @ 2.10GHz × 2, 64 bits.

My device is a UVC device (http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/faq/#faq1):
~ $ lsusb -d 0408:0f41 -v | grep "14 Video"
bFunctionClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
bInterfaceClass 14 Video
~ $ lsusb
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0408:0f41 Quanta Computer, Inc.

According to usb-devices it is HP Webcam-101 (by Quanta Computer, Inc)
P: Vendor=0408 ProdID=0f41 Rev=01.03
S: Manufacturer=SN001
S: Product=HP Webcam-101

However, the vendor / product IDs don't match supported devices http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ where I can find:
058f:a001 HP Webcam-101 (HP Pavilion g6 notebooks) Alcor Micro
but as I don't have a HP Pavillon g6 notebooks, but a Compaq, maybe the IDs are different (strange)?

Following http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/faq/#faq2 I've done:
1. OK (UVC device)

2. Enable all uvcvideo module traces
~ $ sudo chmod a+w /sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/trace (otherwise I cannot change it)
~ $ sudo echo 0xffff > /sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/trace
~ $ cat /sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/trace
65535

~ $ dmesg > ~/dmesg.log
3. Reproduce the problem
~ $ gstreamer-properties
(gstreamer-properties:7730): Gtk-WARNING **: Unknown property: GtkDialog.has-separator

system error: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type]
~ $ dmesg > ~/dmesg.log

### no change in dmesg, the driver does not print any debugging messages to the kernel log.

Note before this trial I've had many changes in dmesg during many trials:
~ $ sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
~ $ sudo modprobe uvcvideo

3. Reproduce the problem
To have traces in uvcvideo I've done
~ $ sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
~ $ sudo modprobe uvcvideo trace=0xFFFF

4. Capture the contents of the kernel log:
I add additional traces (attached file)
~ $ dmesg > ~/dmesg.log

5. If your device is not listed in the supported devices list, dump its USB descriptors
(please see also earlier in my email about supported devices)
~ $ lsusb -d 0408:0f41 -v > lsusb.log

I also join
~ $ modinfo uvcvideo > mod_uvcvideo.log

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Bernard Dano.
