Debian Lenny, kernel 2.6.25-2 486 i and webcam Vimicro zc301


Hello,
I have problem with Vimicro zc301 Web cam. Simply it stop working after system upgrade (15-07-2008). On kernel 2.6.24 was working prfectly, on kernel 2.6.25 I didn't check.
I've also check if when i run debian on kernel 2.6.24, the camera will work, but it's not working - few days ago it runs perfect on this kernel.

I have installed to run webcam:
gspca-modules-2.6.25-2-486 - Driver
Xawtv - Program to capturing image from camera

Please help me, I don't wan't go back to windows (Webcam is very important to me, I use it for skype)

When I try run XAWTV in console program say:
Code:
This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.25-2-486)
xinerama 0: 1024x768+0+0
/dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support
v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct
ioctl: VIDIOC_G_STD(std=0xbfaa2224 [PAL_G,PAL_D,PAL_N,NTSC_M_JP,SECAM_D,SECAM_H,SECAM_K1,?ATSC_8_VSB,ATSC_16_VSB,(null),(null),(null),(null),(null),(null)]): Bad Argument
ioctl: VIDIOC_S_STD(std=0x0 []): bad argument
v4l-conf write:
Code:
v4l-conf: using X11 display :0.0
dga: version 2.0
mode: 1024x768, depth=16, bpp=16, bpl=2048, base=0xd0000000
/dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support
So system see the camera and driver is installed, but it can't dislplay anything.

Sory for my english.
