I would like to see stkwebcam driver to support this webcam.

$ lsusb | grep -i syntek
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 174f:6a31 Syntek Web Cam - Asus A8J, F3S, F5R, VX2S, V1S

stkwebcam does not work on 2.6.8-11 kernel and is not being autoloaded making it possible to include skt11xx driver as temporary fix. Version 2.0.0 of stk11xx driver failed to compile on 64-bit Jaunty beta for some reason, complaining about stk11xx-v4l.c code. Same thing with svn. See http://syntekdriver.sourceforge.net/index.php?mode=download

Does anyone communicate with Linux kernel upstream about stkwebcam driver not supporting syntek cameras? What is the plan for 9.10 final release?

Thanks,
Lex
