The external driver from Luc Saillard was added in 2.6.9-3 by Fabio M. Di Nitto:
* Add support for Philips USB cameras from http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/ at version 10.0.6 (for kernel 2.6.9).
. Add patch drivers-usb-pwc.dpatch.
. Update all config files:
+ USB_PWC=m
And the version currently in 2.6.17-7 is also from Luc Saillard.
So I guess it's safe to update to the latest version which is working.
Anyway I contacted Luc and will post his answers here when I get them.
