Hi, I have three web cams. Two of them are working, but I can't get the third one working (only have one plugged in at any one time).

The webcam itself just has an HP logo and "Invent" underneath it. It's a pretty generic box, but I think it's a Targus AVC01 (at least that is what's on the CD). Here is its product page

When I plug it in:
Code:
Jun 17 12:16:04 fire3 root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x093a product 0x2461 bus uhub5
Jun 17 12:16:04 fire3 kernel: ugen4.4: <Pixart Imaging Inc.> at usbus4

Jun 17 12:16:25 fire3 root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x093a product 0x2461 bus uhub5

Code:
$ usbconfig
{snip}
ugen4.4: <CIF Single Chip Pixart Imaging Inc.> at usbus4, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON

Code:
$ pwcview
Webcam set to: 320x240 (sif) at 5 fps
libv4l2: error dequeuing buf: Device not configured
Error reading from webcam: Device not configured

Like I said, I have two other web cams, so cue4bsd/webcamd, etc are all working correctly and think it's specific to this webcam. Any ideas?

More info:

When I run pwcview the light comes on (on the webcam) and a green screen (in X11) appears for 2-3 seconds, then crashes with the error above.

I just installed the new version of webcamd, no luck.

No errors in logs or webcamd.
