This is indeed wrong and I'll fix it. I think it is sufficient to apply this patch: --- cafe_ccic.c.orig 2009-05-02 17:57:08.000000000 +0200 +++ cafe_ccic.c 2009-05-02 17:57:37.000000000 +0200 @@ -868,6 +868,7 @@ ret = __cafe_cam_reset(cam); if (ret) goto out; + chip.ident = V4L2_IDENT_NONE; chip.match.type = V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_I2C_ADDR; chip.match.addr = cam->sensor->addr; ret = __cafe_cam_cmd(cam, VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT, &chip); Can you confirm this? If it works, then I'll merge this patch and see if I can get it into the 2.6.29 stable series.
