What exactly doesn't work for you? The camera might have some issues (as they all do), but it mostly works for me. > Reading the mailing list archives I discovered that > that webcam has timing issues and will never work with the uvcvideo > driver.

(I tried only with xawtv, a black window appeared and > the blue light of the camera didn't light up). Maybe xawtv only uses video4linux version 1. The UVC driver only supports video4linux version 2. Try the camera with luvcview. You can get it here: http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Investigation/uvc/luvcview-20070107.tar.gz It needs SDL development headers installed on your system to compile, though.
