Bug#517716: Acknowledgement (linux-image-2.6.26-1-686: ehci_hcd 0000:00:02.2: HC died; cleaning up when importing photographs via PTP using gthumb)
Further to my original report I've done some more experiments and
noted that:
- The problem does indeed seem to be file size related. Small images
and video files do not cause the host controller to die. A transfer
of four video files totalling over 700MiB did cause the failure.
- The system appears to become loaded and sluggish during the
transfer. This does not happen when downloading small images from my
other camera (which is unfortunately incapable of generating such
large files.) I've not been able to investigate this further yet.
