Hi,

Did you tried ift 1.4.2 ? Can you send me the file so i can find where
starts the firmware in the driver blob ? Private mail is better.

Regards,
Étienne.

I tried the GIT . The driver is arriving to your gmail account (as reported in git-log).
For the record, I downloaded the Appledriver from https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386195 and I extracted it and it works, but my klog is filled by
 uvcvideo: unknown event type 168.
 uvcvideo: unknown event type 0.
