Cédric,

According to logitech:
http://www.quickcamteam.net/devices/logitech_uvc_frame_format_matrix.xls

your camera should support up to 1600x1...@5fps in yuv mode.
However it's only reporting up to 176x144, this is very strange.

I've seen some posts(
http://www.hbrobotics.org/wiki/index.php5/Beagle_Board#1.29_TUTORIAL:_What_to_buy
)
that seem to indicate there are two different versions of this webcam,
not sure about the differences.

Maybe you should report this to logitech:  http://forums.quickcamteam.net/

Best regards,
Paulo
