I see in http://lxr.linux.no/linux+*/drivers/media/video/em28xx/em28xx-cards.c that product ids 2710, 2750 and 2751 are recognised by the driver, but not 2711. I'm tempted to add it as a EM2800_BOARD_UNKNOWN and see if it works. Is there some methodology I should follow to get a new webcam to work? Thanks, Alex PS. I'm not subscribed.
