I bought this camera and then found out that the image sensor is not supported yet. Then I tried the following:

I looked inside the VCAMEye.inf (driver for windows), and found this lines:

[SN]
%UsbDeviceDesc%=SX.USBDCam,USB\VID_0c45&PID_6005 ; SN9C101 + TAS5110
%UsbDeviceDesc%=SX.USBDCam,USB\VID_0c45&PID_6007 ; SN9C101 + TAS5110D

it looks like the same sensor (except for the D :-), then I tried to use the same sn9c102_tas5110c1b image sensor driver, adding the id (0x0c45:0x6007) in the sensor probe function. When I plugged the camera, dmesg said it has been recognized. So far so good. But when i try to use it, nothing happens. Dmesg keeps saying "usb 2-1.4: usb_submit_urb() failed, error -28".
Ok, I see this drive will not work for my camera. So any idea? I made I usb sniff, but I simply don't know what to do with it, and the manufacturer of the sensor gives no information.
Does anybody know where I can find some documentation on how to interpret this sniff log?

thanks in advance, and sorry for the bad english

pd: sorry my english

Any progress here?
Can we help with this driver? Maybe provide developers with some info - i.e. usb-stream dumps or something?
Or maybe someone can suggest starting point for improving driver?

Thanks in advance!
