Hi, Could you please try with guvcview: guvcview --verbose
This should list all frame formats available on your camera. luvcview only supports yuyv and mjpeg, so other formats are not available. This particular model seems to support RGB24, just made available in guvcview 1.1.3 and completely untested :-), so this is a very good opportunity to contribute in the development of a GPL application, please just report your findings, I'm obviously very interested in the results. Anyway the camera doesn't seem to be recognized has a uvc device (there are no uvc messages in dmesg), you can confirm this with lsusb.
