Bug Description
The camera is not detected on cheese or any other video application.
I guess there's no kernel module available for this camera.
The exact model as `lsusb` says is "Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05ca:1810 Ricoh Co., Ltd Pavilion Webcam [R5U870]"
I once found an attempt to create a module for this camera and it even worked (though with funny green colors), but the code seems to be no longer available on the Internet.

I think the code is back online and may be found under: www.arakhne. org/ricoh/ index.html

I installed a .deb that I got somewhere around the web - not sure if under the attached link - but now my webcam is detected and usable (though I already bought an external one that works better :) )
