Hi,
[Note: I am not subscribed to linux-usb-users, please cc:]
I have a Sony PC110E that has been working with a small patch since 2.4.0 But with 2.4.9-pre2 it does not work anymore...
2.4.7 + my patch
works
2.4.8
has lots of new USB stuff (not tested by me, compilation problems)
2.4.9-pre2
identifies the device correctly - no patch needed (similar patch in unusual-devices)
but is not able to open it "unknown partition table" reported from enabled LDM ... (I enabled it in an attempt to enable everything)
I have usb-debug outputs from both - I will try to look into them myself but if anyone is interested...

Afraid I can't help you, but I can probably rule out the LDM. It's failing when it tries to read a 1KB block from the very beginning of the device: "Unable to read partition table."
LDM complains because it's the first in line for checking partitions. If you were to disable it, then msdos would complain (and give up), instead.

Hmm.. I just got this camera (except it's an NTSC version), and I get
"not a block device" when I try to mount it.
Again, it's recongized properly when I plug it in.
This is with linux-2.4.9-pre4. I haven't tried any other version yet.

It works up to linux-2.4.9-pre2
Something in -pre3 breaks it.
But you need this little patch to enable it.

fdisk works fine. it's when I try to mount it I get the error.
I'll try the patch and see what happens..
