I'd like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of you for helping eachothers. Every answer any of you writes saves me time that I can spend on the driver itself. I'm really happy to see a community building up around the Linux UVC driver. Borje, I'd appreciate if you could report any success (or failure) here, so that I can add the camera to the supported devices list.
