Title:
  Zoran zr364xx connect and disconnect problems

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  APPLIES TO
  Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic Ubuntu Release 10.04 for Netbook. The same problems occure on Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic Ubuntu Release 10.04 and Ubuntu Release 8.04.3 on Live CD.

  The zr364xx driver has the following problems:-

  1. After connecting as a USB Storage device, unplugging without unmounting crashes the camcorder.
  2. Webcam functionality does not work at all.

  DETAIL - I've delimited relevant sections from syslog with ==========
  1)
  When plugging a camcorder into USB the following appears in the syslog

  ==========
  The camcorder requires a selection be made on the device  choosing to connect as a USB storage device or a webcam. Choosing USB storage device appears to works fine. The camcorder also connects as a CDROM which contails the windows driver install files.

  ============
  However, upon disconnect the camcorder freezes and can only be reset by taking out the battery. This does not happen on Windows XP. Everything works fine. It also does not seem to happen if you unmount the device and wait a few seconds before unplugging.

  2)
  When reconnected and the webcam connection option is selected, the following error occurs

  ============
  The module does not appear to be removed and attempts to remove it with module -r zr364xx just hang. The only way I could get it out of there was with a reboot.

  I've tested this on Ubuntu 10.04 for Desktop, 10.04 for Netbook and 8.04 Live CD and I get the same results. The syslog output is below.
