I have used this camera for years with the original PWC driver. Now I try it 
on an other PC with the new PWC driver installed with  SuSE 10.1. I have also 
compiled several of the recent module  releases  from the saillard site.
 
The /dev/video0 is definitely present, but I get an open error saying 
'protocol error'. The modules loaded for pwc are compat_ioctl32 and videodev.

Here is the output from setpwc:
