Kernel (uname -r): 2.6.29.1-desktop-4mnb
Distribution: Mandriva 2009.1



Camera worked ok in Mandriva 2008.0 using the gspca driver. Mandriva 2009.1 is affected by a bug that also affects other Linux distributions which stops this camera working.
gspca module is now included in kernel however camera is mis-associated with the out-dated zc0301 module and gspca does not load. Camera therefore does not function and won't unless you modify kernel source and rebuild the kernel or wait for an updated package.
