Why no webcam drivers in latest kirkwood kernel 3.8.x?

[stickfigure]

I have a POGO-E02 running the latest kirkwood kernel 3.8.3-0-ARCH. I have a Logitech QuickCam Messanger Webcam which works on other builds of linux (Ubuntu) with the 3.5.x kernal with the gspca_stv06xx module. The only module available for my kernel is gspca_main. Is there any way to get the other module so that I can get this webcam working? Thanks.

I'll look into it when I have a bit more time. Or you can change it and submit a pull request at github yourself

Thanks. I've never made a pull request before, so I'll have to figure out what I need to do. gspca covers lot of camera modules through its sub modules, so I wonder what the issue is. Maybe they were considered unimportant to include. How do I go about getting started?

Fixed already. Should be built soon. It will also be the new 3.8.4.

Nice! Thanks for the help!
