Bug in uvcvideo kernel module makes Fedora 16 LiveCD unusable for part of users

Hi,

Due to a kernel bug in uvcvideo module [1] Fedora 16 doesn't work
properly with specific web camera model(s) (at least available in Asus
N43S series). It's required to blacklist that module in
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (boot parameter rd.blacklist doesn't
help) which is impossible with LiveCD (without ISO modification).

Maybe it would a good workaroud to temporarily blacklist that module in
Fedora 16 (+ make a note in common bugs how to enable that module to use
web camera) to allow those people to test further Fedora 16 version from
LiveCD)?
