Seems that this worked for one boot following a kernel update. That tends to imply its intemittant. Either way its not fixed, reopening.

bug still there.
after fresh install of an kernel it works for a time.
then after i rebootet 2 or 3 times it gets detected it starts but the oicture is absolutely black.
maybe an v4l or nvidia driver bug ?

I have been experiencing this bug with the exact same webcam for several months now. The camera is detected and shows up when I do an lsusb, but the video device /dev/video0 fails to open. I did some research on google, and this post seems to have a solution.

Apparently there is a patch to fix this that is not officially maintained. If someone could at least walk through how to apply it, that would be great.
