Bug Description
Not really a bug, but a whish:
I have just bought this webcam. Current edgy kernel seems not to support it (2.6.17-10).
I have downloaded and compiled a newer driver from mxhaard.free.fr and it works fine. I only had to install the kernel-headers package and execute the build script included within the driver's tarball:

Other newer creative webcams are not supported by the kernel en Edgy either. It would be nice to update the drivers since these are popular devices these days.
