The UVC driver now uses git for development. You then have two options:

- checkout the latest driver sources from the git tree at 
http://git.linuxtv.org/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git

- get the latest v4l-dvb hg snapshot at http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/

The former will require recompiling the whole kernel, while the later will let 
you update the v4l-dvb subsystem completely (highly recommended for end 
users).
