Hi Luc,

I followed Your proposal to change pwc-if.c in the tar ball
pwc-v4l2-20060106-042701.tar.bz2.tar (all 0x8b1 substituted by 0x8ae).
The whole thing compiled smoothly and 'make install' 'depmod'ed the
driver (of course after the removal of the old driver !).

------------------------------------
A part of the contents of /var/log/messages after reboot and applying
the 'modprobe pwc' command shows the following :

After attaching the Wecam to an USB port I started the 'xawtv' program
what resulted in a lot of error messages (more error messages can be
seen in the messages file above !!)):

I attached the output of the 'lsusb -v -v' command :
