Bug 108919 – modprobe ehci-hcd freezes system on latest vanilla and gentoo sources

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2005-10-11 12:30:14 UTC]

So today testing spca5xx I did modprobe ehci-hdc and got full system freeze.
Nothing responded any more. Well I booted and now went straight to console and
tested modprobe ehci-hdc and the same thing happened.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. modprobe ehci-hcd on gentoo-sources-2.6.13-r3
2. I tested with camera removed and it had no effect on the freeze


Expected Results:  
It has worked without problems with past kernels. I think I haven't tried
ehci-hcd on any of the 2.6.13 series kernels.

Same thing happened on vanilla-sources-2.6.14-rc3.

[Comment 2 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2005-10-11 13:00:36 UTC]

I wonder why I always typo the module name as ehci-hdc.

Please file this as an upstream bug at http://bugzilla.kernel.org and post the
new bug URL here.

Reported. Tested on rc4 and the problem is there with that version too.
