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.
