dmesg message:
[13440.956029] usb 7-1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using uhci_hcd
lsusb message:
Bus 001 Device 010: ID 0c45:6027 Microdia
-- What I expected to happen
A device on / dev/video0, accessible for applications using webcam
--What happened
/dev/video0 does not exist, gspca (2.14) does not seem to know how to operate the device, and ignores it.
Compiling the gspca driver in version 2.15.18 does not recognize it, but the camera "works" with the driver partially sonixb (sonix RGB) (which does not belong)
The camera should work with the driver compiled sonixj (sonix jpeg), but does not really work: the driver recognizes all without problems ...
dmesg:
