Re: USB bus fails to see devices

Yes, that's a possibility. However, when I connect or disconnect my
digital camera there's no message at all showing up in my
kernlog/syslog. My understanding is that udev gets a message from kernel
if the status of a device changes, and since there's no message, my
problem seems not to be at level of the udev interface file.


Well, your thinking makes sense to me, I don't see how much can
happen until the kernel sees it there.

Does it look like the camera itself may have a hardware problem?

Well, that would be the next thing to check as you have already suggested
you will do on your wife's computer.

Well, I was finally able to access my wife's machine. I connected the
camera to a USB port and powered the camera on (did no use wall wart
power), and nothing happened in syslog. That makes it sound like the
camera itself has broken, unless for some reason I needed external
power rather than batteries..
