Making my USB based webcam work

2004-11-28 Thread stan
Just picked up a cheap USB based webcam, and I'm trying to figure out
how to use it with Debian.

lsusb reports 04fC;0561 Sunplus Technology Co, Ltd.

When I plug it in it's detectd but not claimed by any driver. 

How do I go about geting this to work?

Thanks, I'll try downloading and compiling that driver, when I get back
home.
