The cam does function with with luvcview.
I've been getting the a similiar 'BadWindow' error with Ekiga though. When
patched with the USB reset patch, the white balance, contrast and brightness
appear to function better. The default setting are a little too low.
So, the patch does work, its how it interfaces with other applications that
seems to be the problem.

Subject: [Linux-uvc-devel] Bison webcam: the patch doesn't work
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 21:49:23 +0200
MIME-Version: 1.0
I tried your patch (add a few lines to uvc_driver.c for Bison, and
recompile). dmesg does not complain at boot time:
uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device USB2.0 Camera (5986:0100)
usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo
USB Video Class driver (v0.1.0)
But it does not work. Examples with three applications:
* Camorama: A window with "Could not connect to video device (/dev/video0)"
(although /dev/video0 does exist). No output on the terminal
* amsn:
Type: IP-Restrict-NAT, Listening: false , the same if I completely
disconnect the firewall.
If I do "change video settings", dmesg says uvcvideo: Button event (0). (I
think it is at that moment, but not sure).
Surprisingly, when I change a video setting in amsn, the led on the webcam
lights and stays lit. But the message Type: IP-Restrict-NAT, Listening:
false is still the same.
* With xawtv . The led lights for a second and then stops. The capture
screen is black.
The output on the terminal:
# xawtv
This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.21-1-686)
