I believe, that gspca-source is too old now. There must come something
similiar, but official didn't update this.

I only can recommend updating the complete Linux-Kernel, because the
driver have been integrated. Compile your own version downloading of
www.kernels.org

Maybe the most recent Kernel works for you. I cannot guarantee that. I'm
sorry. But maybe you have luck. Anyway the developers are still working
hard on it!
