=== nhandler_ is now known as nhandler [00:15] how should i title a bug, i have the problem with specific hardware but it can be generallised to any hardware that holds onto its usb address. should i call it "X does not work after its rotated" or "usb devices fail to reconnect after temporary disconection, if the device expects the same usb address" ? [00:16] RiotingPacifist, What kind of device is this? [00:16] a usb device (webcam) [00:17] And what fails to reconnect? v4l2 clients? [00:17] an internal webcam in the laptop but the problem is with the usb stack not with the webcam drivers [00:17] What's the problem? [00:17] if the cammera is rotated (it gets disconnected temporaraly) then it disapears from lsusb until i reboot [00:18] So it's not just that it gets a different address, but that it completely disappears? [00:18] its caused by :[ 781.642552] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 27 //[ 781.826537] usb 2-2: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [00:19] which as far as i understand it is the ohci_hcd stack offering it a new address and it refuses the new address [00:19] oops copied the wrong part: [ 782.390466] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 28 [ 782.798424] usb 2-2: device not accepting address 28, error -62 [00:19] I'd probably title it "${specific product name} fails to reattach to USB bus after momentary disconnection". [00:20] thx, im not sure its actually fixable tbh but hopefully there will be a work around [00:20] In the description, I'd be sure to mention the make/model of the laptop in which the device is included (embedded devices tend to get higher priority, as users don't have as much choice). [00:21] Also, be sure to attach the output of lspci -vvnn to the bug, as well as the output of lsusb -v before and after the disconnection, and dmesg.

I had filed a bug and the author then released a new upstream version. [07:18] I'm wondering how to get the new version picked up, should I file a new bug? [07:19] the package is sysprof-module-source [07:19] marmuta, Just add a note to the old bug. [07:19] With the patch available, status should be "triaged". [07:19] (as we trust upstream to write good patches) [07:20] thank you, I'll do that. Also what if I wanted to get my feet wet and try to package it myself? [07:21] is there any chance this would get considered for inclusion? [07:22] Perhaps : it depends on the bug. The archive is currently frozen for the intrepid release, so you'd need to file the stable release update process. [07:22] !sru [07:22] Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [07:23] It was more the trivial kind, nothing functional changed, I'll check the link, thank you [07:28] Oh, for that sort of thing, the better solution would be to prepare the new upstream for jaunty, but jaunty doesn't open for another few weeks. [07:28] You've found the solution at just the time it's least convenient to get it uploaded :( [07:30] oh, too bad, it's unusable right now without patching it [07:30] Hrm? "unusable right now" doesn't sound "the trivial kind". [07:31] "unusable right now" sounds serious, and in need of a post-update fix soonest. [07:31] well the kernel module doesn't build and the patch was trivial [07:32] upstream basically changed just this one thing [07:32] the size of the patch isn't the important part : it's the size of the bug :) [07:33] Sometimes a 1 character patch can change a package from useless to useful. [07:34] ok, I stand corrected. it's critically important for this package to work. [07:37] also I found that I cannot set the state to triaged, launchpad does't let me do it [07:38] What's the bug number?
