Description of problem: After installing my new USB camera, system-config-soundcard crashes at startup. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-soundcard/system-config-soundcard.py", line 46, in ? app = soundcard.childWindow() File "/usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcard.py", line 87, in __init__ self.device, self.module, self.maker, self.model = self.soundcardBackend.getData(card) File "/usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcardBackend.py", line 106, in getData maker, model = string.split(description, " ", 1) ValueError: unpack list of wrong size The problem is that description of my USB camera is very short: it has only one word. So the list returned by split function has only one element, and cannot be assigned to the tuple (maker, model). A similar problem would arise if the description was an empty string. I send attached a working (at least for me) patch. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I'm using system-config-soundcard-1.2.10-1 on FC3 How reproducible: Always
Created attachment 120800 [details] Proposed patch
It should be fixed in devel (package system-config-soundcard-1_2_14-1)
