Hi,
I’ve been using Garuda Linux for a bit now and I think it’s a really fun distro! My computer has an integrated webcam that I disabled using the instructions on the arch linux wiki, since I have a better usb webcam I use instead. I created the following file with the following line:
/etc/udev/rules.d/40-disable-internal-webcam.rules
ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="174f", ATTR{idProduct}=="2465", RUN="/bin/sh -c 'echo 1 >/sys/\$devpath/remove'"
This was working great for a while, because I could delete the line and put it back on the rare occasion I needed to use my internal webcam. However, more recently my internal webcam is not recognized by programs or by lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0bda:4853 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Bluetooth Radio
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
It IS recognized by dmesg:
[ 1.441684] usb 3-8: New USB device found, idVendor=174f, idProduct=2465, bcdDevice= 0.11
[ 1.441688] usb 3-8: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=1, SerialNumber=2
[ 1.441690] usb 3-8: Product: Integrated Camera
[ 1.441691] usb 3-8: Manufacturer:
[ 1.441692] usb 3-8: SerialNumber: 0001
But then says that it’s been disconnected:
[ 1.881849] usb 3-8: USB disconnect, device number 2
I honestly don’t remember what I’ve tried to do to resolve this issue (I’ve followed a LOT of instructions from various forums, and nothing has worked so far), and I’ve finally come here to ask for help.
Here’s the output of garuda-inxi if that helps at all. Thank you!
