Actually, according to http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ , you can just try 'USB Video Class' Driver, i.e. Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Video Capture Adapters -> V4L USB Devices -> (M) USB Video Class (UVC) & (y) UVC input events device support
(CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS=m & USB_VIDEO_CLASS_INPUT_EVDEV=y).

Linux video capture interface: v2.00
gspca: main v2.7.0 registered
gspca: probing 041e:4055
zc3xx: Sensor Tas5130 (VF0250)
gspca: probe ok
usbcore: registered new interface driver zc3xx
zc3xx: registered
usb 5-5: USB disconnect, address 3
gspca: usb_submit_urb alt 2 err -19

Hello Amol and Denis,

This webcam is not handled by gspca (it is VF0230, and not VF0250).

I already got a usbsnoop and I may say that it if not UVC compliant too.

With the usbsnoop and the register names in the V0230Dev.inf of the ms-win driver, it should be easy to create a new driver, but:

- it seems it asks for a firmware which may be copyrighted,

- the images are compressed and the encoding is not known...

BTW, the linux video stuff is now discussed in the linux-media mailing list (see Cc:).

Best regards.

In reply to amol verule

Hello Amol,

Looking back in my mails, I found that the driver for your webcam is 'm5603c'. It has been written and ported to gspca v2 by Franck Bourdonnec (hello Franck!), but it is not yet integrated in the kernel.

Looking at the m560x project at sourceforge, it seems that nothing happended since many months. So, I don't know if the driver works. Here are the source files:

	http://m560x-driver.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/m560x-driver/

Best regards.
