USB Errors...

Can anyone tell me what these messages mean ? I have a webcam I am trying to hook up to my linux server, and when I plug the USB cable in, I get the following messages:

usb 2-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
usb 2-1: device not accepting address 4, error -71
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
usb 2-1: device not accepting address 5, error -71
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6


I assume it just won't support that particular webcam. Its a LG model LPC-U30 . I have found some documentation that is may work with the OV511 ...

I'm running fedora core 4 kernel build 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4.

What exactly it means I don't know but you're not alone in experiencing it (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6078).
