[pwc] nothing but time outs

[Lonni J Friedman]

Greetings,
I've had a 690 PWC for about 5 years.  Recently it stopped working,
and I'm not sure if its because it died, or if there's some software
based reason.

I'm running Fedora 7 (x86), if that matter with pwc version 10.0.13.

The basic problem is that all I get are time-outs when attempting to
do anything with the camera.  Basically, what I'm seeing in dmesg is:

usb 1-10: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 8
usb 1-10: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
pwc: Philips PCVC690K (Vesta Pro Scan) USB webcam detected.
pwc: Registered as /dev/video0.
pwc: Failed to set video mode QCIF at 10 fps; return code = -110

The LED does come on when its plugged in, so I think its getting power
just fine. Anyone know if there's any foolproof way to determine
whether the camera is dead?

thanks
