My offhand guess would be bandwidth allocation. Since USB 1.1 is realistically too slow for anything more demanding than a laser printer, most "high bandwidth" usb peripherals attempt to allocate all available usb bandwidth, or are otherwise Just Plain Rude. So, if they're on the same bus, that would be my guess. iirc, there is an experimental option in the kernel usb drivers for 'enforce bandwidth allocation' - might help. - Eric On Tue, 05 Mar 2002 12:10:26 -0800 Ted Huntington <thunting@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi > > I am having trouble getting images at different times from 2 usb > cameras.
