To avoid misunderstandings, the patch I sent is not just printing the USB vendor ID and product ID but also really enables the pac7302 gspca subdriver to actually work with the newly added USB IDs. > On the other hand, compiling a full kernel is not needed with a small > tarball distribution as the one I have in my page (actual gspca-2.9.10). This is also a possible way to go, the important thing is that a kernel module has to be built and the previous version of gspca_pac7302 kernel module has to be replaced with the newly built one.
