Linux 2.6.28 + Trust 610 LCD PowerC@m Zoom, webcam mode?
From: Németh Márton

Hello Jean-Francois,
I have a Trust 610 LCD PowerC@m Zoom camera which can operate in webcam mode
also (USB ID=06d6:0031). I tried to use it together with Linux 2.6.28 and with
xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1 and with gqcam 0.9.1. The /dev/video0 appeared, but no usable
picture was visible.
However, I downloaded http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/gspcav1-20071224.tar.gz
and applied the attached patch (which might be incorrect for some aspects).
So I was able to compile the module and both xawtv and gqcam showed the good
picture.
Do you have any idea why the gspcav1 diver is working and the one which is included
in Linux 2.6.28 not?
Here is the output of v4l-info with the patched working gspcav1 driver:
