I installed linux-uvc, SVN version from a Gentoo ebuild. There was a post-install note saying to get involved here if a device doesn't work. I hope I am not spamming the wrong list. :-)
I have an HP dv9574 laptop with a built-in webcam. What sort of camera it actually is is not obvious, but I believe this lsusb entry is it: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 064e:a101 Suyin Corp. Here is dmesg's output on loading the uvcvideo module: uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device HP Webcam (064e:a101) usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo USB Video Class driver (v0.1.0) The dev entry is created but does not seem to work: # cat /dev/video0 cat: /dev/video0: No such device The file does exist, by the way. Running xawtv causes the blue LED next to the camera to light briefly, but does not produce a picture. I would be glad to assist in any way I can to help add support for this device. I can't code but I will do any tests you suggest.
