Oh right!  So I searched the site more and I remember how I got the
original rpm in the first place.  In the same site are src.rpms:

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/drivers:/webcam/SUSE_Linux_10.1/src/

So I downloaded the src rpm and rebuilt it with

rpmbuild --rebuild uvcvideo.....src.rpm

and I now have the latest driver in rpm format. The new driver works a
bit better than previous, but I still do not have color or enough
brightness.  But it's progress.  Thanks for your reply.  Gustav
