Public bug reported:

Binary package hint:
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-9-generic

Driver was already Broken in Edgy, and I had to recompile
it, to get the webcam to work (still bas quality after)
In Feisty, the configuration LED from the webcam is always
on, I get no messages from the webcam programms (ekiga or
camorama) but also no image...

Here the output from dmesg : 
[ 2053.104000] pwc: Philips webcam module version 10.0.12

v4l:// :v4l-vdev="/dev/video"
:v4l-adev="/dev/dsp" :v4l-norm=3 :v4l-frequency=-1
