[Bug 185634] Re: uvcvideo: iSight firmware loading does not work

 

Ok, to 8300 shows up, disconnects, and then becomes 8501.  That would
suggest to me firmware is loading. (hal and ift-callout are a little
*too* quiet... no dmesg output on success?) But still this "No valid
video chain found." error...

cjp@byzantium:~$ dmesg | egrep '(uvcvideo|5\-4)'

I am having problems with my iSight webcam in Hardy. I have copied AppleUSBVideoSupport to the firmware directory, but when I insert the isight_usb module I get:
