Bug Description
This webcam worked with Ubuntu 8.04. With Ubuntu 8.10, the image sensor was no longer detected. The same is true with the latest Jaunty kernel. The problem appears to be that the sn9c102 kernel module is loading and that the gspca module found in 8.10 and 9.04 alpha5 do not load and handle the image sensor properly.
This issue is fixable by blacklisting sn9c102 and installing a recent version of gspca from: http://
My hope is to get this working ootb in 9.04. I've seen from some other webcam bug reports that things get done more effectively if there is a specific bug report for a specific hardware malfunction. I'd like to keep this bug report pertinent to one specific webcam if you think it'll help. Here is some info about my webcam:
