Yes, I've read every email you have sent on the subject. Unfortunatly I 
have no clue.

I only have a gspca webcam in my laptop and it's broken so I can't 
really be of much help. The only thing I recall is that it did not work 
very well with Fedora. Usually I had to grab the upstream gspca driver, 
mess with some defines to get the colors right, compile it and keep 
fingers crossed when inserting the module and starting cheese. The 
laptop's USB version is USB1 and it has a NM10/ICH7 chipset.

FWIW, maybe try every older kernel you can get your hands on and see 
where the issue no longer occurs. Then get the kernel's src.rpm and try 
to figure out which patch could possibly be the culprit.

Regards,
Patrick
