USB and Cameras not loading

**Jonners59** · July 11th, 2024

I have just hit a problem with using my built-in and USB cameras, and also my memory/USB sticks. First noticed when I had to attend a TEAMS call, and all I could get was the virtualcamera, and then I tried my USB storage device. Now I know they all work and the USB sockets are fine as they all work perfectly in the Windows OS.

Everything is iup to date, and I have tried everything I can find on the various forums.

HTML Code:

The two cameras are listed. The BISON is the plug-in USB camera and the ARC is the built-in. Note that in the ABOVE output the Bison is missing. It was there, but disappeared.

Will this show it?

Code:

usbguard list-devices |grep block

EDIT: if it shows then my example may help

Code:

To allow it I use:

Code:

usbguard allow-device -p 45

Now:

Code:

usbguard list-devices|grep 45:

Thank you. That hit the button. I didn't go through giving access as you showed, but instead just uninstalled Usbguard.

I have now discovered that sone directory permissions have changed too. I tried to tidy up my desktop and update sone files and they won't save or move directory. I.e. from Desktop to a directory in Documents. Never ends! 😭😭

It sounds as if some files or folders in your home may no longer be owned by you which will cause many difficulties so run command
ls -la
to see if anything obvious shows in that list that is owned by root or some other user.

Have you misused any sudo commands to run GUI applications which could in the past change ownership of files in the user's home.

**Jonners59** · July 12th, 2024

Not that I am aware, but could possibly whilst trying all the suggestions from various threads... But unlikely.

I'll give that CMD a bash over the weekend.

THANK YOU!

Now a reset using "chown"

Code:

chown -hvR me /home/me

sudo is not needed. (replace "me" to the name of the owner you want to change it to.)

Always have good back-ups in place before make any system changes.

For clarity:
This -h -h, --no-dereference
affect symbolic links instead of any referenced file (useful only on systems that can
change the ownership of a symlink)

and this -v, --verbose
output a diagnostic for every file processed

and of course -R, --recursive
operate on files and directories recursively

Thought I had replied to this, this AM, seems not, but it was on my phone.

Thank you 1fallen.
I had a go yesterday. I could not affect the directory where the files and documents etc. are all stored. I keep everything on a separate partition which mounts to /media/Storage/ It says chmod failed for every line. It says wright protected. Tried changing it but that does not work. I've tried using terminal and via recovery. NOTHING works. This ONLY started after the update and the installation of USBGuard. SO no change there.

I also did as you advised, below, and sadly since then I can not boot into my desktop. I get the log-in screen. Log in, BUT then the screen goes black and hangs there. Sometimes I get a curser top left, which sometimes flashes, sometimes not.

Any advise, please ;-(

Now a reset using "chown"

Code:

chown -hvR me /home/me

sudo is not needed. (replace "me" to the name of the owner you want to change it to.)

Always have good back-ups in place before make any system changes.

For clarity:
This -h -h, --no-dereference
affect symbolic links instead of any referenced file (useful only on systems that can
change the ownership of a symlink)

and this -v, --verbose
output a diagnostic for every file processed

and of course -R, --recursive
operate on files and directories recursively

Any advise, please ;-(

That would not have anything to do with a broken-login
I personally ran the command 3 times, once before suggesting "chown -hvR me /home/me" to You.
And once more on another system and just now,

Code:

chown -hvR me /home/me >chown.txt

chown: changing ownership of '/home/me/plt': Operation not permitted
chown: changing ownership of '/home/me/zpcachys': Operation not permitte

That's only a third of the return seen on my end.

EDIT:A third reboot and still good.

Dang I feel bad, but lacking anything helpful to work from I'm clueless.

At the login screen use {Ctrl+Alt+F3}
Login as you would normally and when returned to the prompt use:

Code:

startx

Try and remember anything that might help.

**Jonners59** · July 15th, 2024

For god's sake don't feel bad. Not your fault. It's just frustrating and you are working blind and I have little clue.
