Description Jani Monoses 2008-11-01 05:24:41 UTC

Worked in Ubuntu hardy (2.6.24 presumably with out of tree gspca)

This webcam should be moved to gspca instead of zc0301 as many others were a while ago in commit 222a07ffd8e280b1bf4a6f7edab8b6fa27a5455a
it works with gspca but not in zc0301
Latest mandriva and Ubuntu are affected

Please apply the patch from the Ubuntu tree, this is fixed in 8.10 and 9.04 but apparently not in other distros.
