[Bug 219252] Re: [Hardy] webcam stopped working after last kernel update

[Andres Mujica]

Hi, it seems that the r5u870 module works up to 2.6.24

So there's an alternate procedure to make it work, it consists on
loading the firmware and using it with the uvcvideo driver.

please note that it's not the ideal solution, this should be handled by
hal (probably) but in the meantime would work for you.
