Bug#272768: USB device detection broken in latest kernels version 2.4.26 and 2.4.27
Hi, thanks for your answer.
The only kernel I had installed before the upgrade was 2.4.26-2 I've been using
that kernel since may/june without problems.
During upgrade, apt-get installed 2.4.26-6 and 2.4.27-2
Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-k7
Priority: optional
Section: base
Installed-Size: 30254
Maintainer: Debian Kernel Team <debian-kernel@lists.debian.org>
Architecture: i386
Source: kernel-image-2.4.27-i386
Version: 2.4.27-2
Package: kernel-image-2.4.26-1-k7
Priority: optional
Section: base
Installed-Size: 31860
Maintainer: Debian Kernel Team <debian-kernel@lists.debian.org>
Architecture: i386
Source: kernel-image-2.4.26-i386
Version: 2.4.26-6
When the camera didn't work after upgrade I suspected a bug in
kernel 2.4.27 and rebooted to the new 2.4.26 with the same results.

If I'm not wrong, with 2.4.26-2 kernel, the output of cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
was longer, something like entries for 2 or 3 devices (things like bus,
controllers, ports if I remember correctly... ) intead of only 1.
Thanks for your help.
