dmesg reported:

usb 1-2: SN9C10[12] PC Camera Controller detected (vid:pid 0x0C45:0x6028)
usb 1-2: PAS202BCB image sensor detected

I checked on http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids (is that the right place 
for that?), and looks like the vendor is Microdia, but the product id is 
unknown. Does this mean I have no chance to make my can working?

I had compiled module ov511, and I tried simple:

rmmod sn9c102
insmod ov511.ko

,but that only made my camera completely stop working..
