Public bug reported:

An "Kernel Panic - not syncing: Fatal Exception in interrupt" happens
whenever a application try to access the /dev/video0 created after
spca5xx module is up. eg.: gnomemeeting, mplayer, webcam. frozen the
system.

dmesg fragment (module seems ok):

[4305057.983000] drivers/usb/media/spca5xx/spca5xx-core.c: spca5xx driver 00.57.02 registered

ps:This webcam works perfectly on the same machine (pc) at slackware,
using everyone drivers found in http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html

ps2: I'll try to catch the entirely error.
