To fix the problem I need to load the uvcvideo module like this: Code: sudo modprobe uvcvideo Now everything works perfectly. Where can I add uvcvideo to the list of modules that should load on start-up, and why is it not loaded automaticly? I think a USB device should be automaticly detected. I want it to work for all users. This is my webcam Code: lsusb Buss 001 Device 003: ID 0ac8:c33f Z-Star Microelectronics Corp.

Also affects distribution/package Nominate for series Bug Description I have a Dell Vostro 1400 with a built-in webcam that works flawlessly with uvcvideo. However, during the boot I get uvcvideo: Failed to query (129) UVC control 1 (unit 0) : -32 right after "loading hardware drivers...".
