I would suggest going into the linux kernel and determining exactly 
which module is for your web cam.

cd linux
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- menuconfig

(assuming the prefix for your cross compiler is arm-linux-, and it's in 
your PATH)

then look through the v4l section as well as the usb section for 
something to do with your web cam.

videodev.o is only a generic module for the v4l code.

You will likely have to insert another module, such as  pd1100.o (that's 
probably not the real module name, it's just to illustrate the point)
