Looks fine to me :-)
There is a link at http://www.linux-usb.org/devices.html
Documentation in the kernel is too old because of that 2.4 release.

This option is for troubleshooting, debugging and development, not
for the production use.
If the camera is unusually slow (less than 1 fps) this should be
looked into. See http://www.linux-usb.org/ibmcam/
Also, anyone who can extract a programming specs from Xirlink
will be very much a hero. Generations of knigh^Wdevelopers tried
to accomplish this, but nobody succeeded so far.
