Hi Georg,
i'm developer in the qce-ga (Logitech Quickcam 4 Linux) project
and we would be interested to support this camera as well...
Gunnar, if you like, we stay in contact if you gimme your emailaddress
and i will go on testing to get that camera running (you'd just need
to compile and test it the whole time)..

ouf :( STV610 sounds bad...as _you_ (*gg*) know that we only support the
STV0600
The VV6410 is well supported..
I think we could give the whole Lego thing a try ...
Gunnar, you drop me a mail?
