[cpia] USB terracam problems..

[Samo Gabrovec]

Hi!
I bought another cam (terracam USB) and on SuSe 7.0 which has usb support and
cpia 1.0 in the kernel 
cam started to work in secunds i pluged it in ... But things aren`t so great
after all.
I get (for my knowledge of USB and this stuff) weird messages when looking the
in the /var/log/messages..
there are a lot of "gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 198 "
messages and it`s just the matter of time 
when i get this 
--
bash-2.04# tail /var/log/messages
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 187
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 191
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 193
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 195
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 198
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 223
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 261
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 266
Sep 13 08:47:32 gekko kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 271

After that i have to kill the program that was used for capturing.
I tried them all xawtv, gqcam, w3cam they all "crash" in like 5-10 minutes of
using them.
The funny thing is that if i use for exsample gqcam and if it`s running
(showing the the live video)
i`ll get similar messages (with out gekko kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg:
timeout) but it can run all night and maybe more 
but if i access the cam every 30 sec or less or more (interval pics for the
webcam) it crashes very quickly.

Before i upgraded to Suse 7.0 i used a 2.2.16 with the latest backport USB
driver and it was the same story ( from suse box..
SuSE already provides a Linux kernel which can truly be called a 2.2.17-pre
thanks to its variety of extensions. The extended USB support ...)
I think they use the same backport as i did on 2.2.16 which wouldn`t matter
much as i got the same results using my compiled kernel too.

Could someone point me to the right direction how to solve this?
thanks

Samo Gabrovec.
