Hi, Axel

I am using the last version you posted and it is fine.
The interesting fact is that before I fix the udev rules for lirc
and fuse, gspca changed my video devs:

gspca became video0 and bttv video1.

Not really a problem, but weird ....
The problem only appears after the first reboot.
That is why I did not realize before.

Seems fine now. Everything back to normal.
But, maybe, I should reboot a few more times to be sure ....

/Paulo Roma.
