you should edit kernel source. find drivers/media/video/uvc/uvc_driver.c
and add some thing like this:

        { .match_flags          = USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_DEVICE
                                | USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_INT_INFO,
          .idVendor             = 0x046d,
          .idProduct            = 0x08c1,
          .bInterfaceClass      = USB_CLASS_VENDOR_SPEC,
          .bInterfaceSubClass   = 1,
          .bInterfaceProtocol   = 0 },

replace idVendor idProduct to yours. Try it on your own risk. If your
cam will be in fire, i have no responsibility.
