Problem USB Webcams
▪ Creative
▪ WebCam Pro / PD1030 - ov519 driver crashes almost immediately.
("gspca: ISOC data error: [0] len=0, status=-4004")
▪ Logitech
▪ Webcam Pro 9000 - Has issues capturing images at higher than default
resolutions (using motion - Arch and Debian).
▪ Webcam Pro 4000 - It uses pwc driver which does not work. Maybe it's
because of general Raspi USB bug.
▪ Microsoft
▪ Lifecam HD5000 - Picture breaks up at the bottom
▪ LifeCam Studio/Cinema - Has UVC issues detailed here [36]

▪ Sony
▪ Eye Toy (PlayStation 2) model SLEH 00030 - (OV519 camera). Picture
constantly breaks up on xawtv and wxcam under Arch Linux. Noted
there were ISOC data error len=0 status=-4004 errors in dmesg. This
happens when powered from the Pi and when powered from a Pluscom
USB hub. Arch was updated on 17th July 2012
▪ Trust
▪ SPACEC@M 200 - (OV511 camera). Picture stops after a few seconds
in xawtv under Arch Linux and xawtv reports libv4l2 errors. This
happens when powered from the Pi and when powered from a Pluscom
USB Hub. Arch was updated on 17th July 2012
USB GPS devices
▪ Royaltek
▪ Royaltek RGM 2000 SiRF2 using the included serial (TTL) to USB -
converter. That uses a Profilic pl2303-chip so you'll need to compile the
module or the kernel manually
▪ Garmin
▪ Garmin eTrex Vista HCx: Works but may draw much power. To get it
working (software part): https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/
USB_Garmin_on_GNU/Linux
▪ GlobalSat
▪ GlobalSat BU-353 Does not require a powered hub, works fine when
directly plugged into the RPi. On Raspian, requires the gpsd and gpsdclient
packages. For some reason, the gpsd daemon does not always start
