Josef,
white balance temperature and hue controls are being blacklisted in
uvcvideo for all cameras due to a bug in the driver.
A patch fixing the issue was committed recently
(https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/linux-uvc-devel/2009-December/005396.html)
but I'm not sure when it will be available.
thank you again, paulo, for your off-list help. cam is now working

rmmod uvcvideo
modprobe uvcvideo
otherwise the quirks want have any effect.

echo 2 > /sys/module/uvcvideo/parameters/quirks
this will set uvcvideo quirks to 2
or you can also try the latest uvcvideo:
