Doesn't help much, at least with the default distributions.

The pwcx-i386.o module itself worked for me when insmod -f without any 
problems on several kernels. I also tested it on kernel 2.5.61 and it worked 
without a problem with insmod -f 

And yes, I know it's dangeous, but:

1. I don't have the source code, and Philips don't want to release the code 
(it's not theirs)
2. It gives me the BEST driver for my cam - almost all the features of this 
cam works (only the button on top of it doesn't, yet).

Thanks,
Hetz
