Hi, again !

I'm here again because nobody answered my other emails. So I hope there
is a response this time, thank you anyway.

I have read the usb mailing list archive and I have found people with
the
same problem than me. So I think is an interesting question than must be

resolved (well, I'm very interested in it, of course ;) ). One person
get a OV511
cam working with 2.2.14+2.3.99-pre7 USB backport in one computer and
can not work in other computer getting:

    usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout  messages so the cam is not
recognized.

Well, I have a similar problem but with a USB Zoom Cam. I have tried 2
versions of
the backport (usb-2.3.99-pre7-1-for-2.2.14.diff.gz and
usb-2.3.50-1-for-2.2.14.diff.gz)
with kernels 2.2.14 and 2.2.15 with the same results (SMP kernel):

May 19 16:13:22 hal kernel: V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras
v1.0.0
May 19 16:13:22 hal insmod: /lib/modules/2.2.14/misc/cpia_usb.o: insmod

May 19 16:16:32 hal last message repeated 4 times
May 19 16:16:32 hal kernel: usb.c: USB device not responding, giving up
(error=-110)

The USB subsystem is not able to contact with the cam, I think.

Anyway, when I use the kernel 2.3.51 (SMP kernel) I can view my not very
pretty face ;)
in the screen. I can use it without problems. Well my intention is to
debug the problem
but I'm not a kernel hacker so I ask you for some help in what to do to
find the problem
, what can I do ? I need the cam working in 2.2.x kernels.

Thaks you very much for any help.

Here is some information:
