Hey,
I just got this camera recently. It works under linux-uvc, but it
doesn't work well at all (terrible resolution, bad lighting, etc). Is
there something I can do to make the driver recognize it's
capabilities better?

dmesg from when I inserted it:
usb 2-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
