gspca_spca505

OK, I've raised the level of debug to 15 as you requested. Personally, I hope the code for the internal capture card is still intact and bugs simply prevent its use. Time will tell. ;) Evidently Intel isn't much use as a source for documentation of equipment manufactured for them. I wonder who wrote the Windows driver for the chipset used in this camera, the chipset manufacturer? Somebody has the documentation and should be willing to release it after this number of years has elapsed. You developers know the process...so I HTH. I apologize for overlooking the debug level on the first go.

I found no interesting information in your traces: the debug level is too low and there is only the probe sequence. Please, may you do, as root:

	echo 0x3f > /sys/modules/gspca_main/parameters/debug

then, as user, run:

svv -rg

then, as root again, do:

grep spca /var/log/kern.log > spca.log

and send me the file 'spca.log'? Thank you.

I may have found a problem. May you try to change the line 399 of linux/drivers/media/gspca/spca505.c from:

	#define initial_brightness 0x7f /* 0x0(white)-0xff(black) */
to:
	#define initial_brightness 0 /* 0x0(white)-0xff(black) */

BTW, your email address ("T.P. Reitzel" <[email protected]>) is not correct. Please, may you fix it before posting again?
