Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  Will work with the upstream to solve the issue with gspca. The qc-usb package is deprecated.

This package has issues with kernel 2.6.29. It will probably be removed. Please don't update it, as it makes the kernel very unstable.

I'm trying to solve it with the kernel developers, but I'm not currently with the camera, so it will take some days.

I'm going to move qc-usb to unsupported. The gspca driver bundled in kernel is intended to replace it (although it is still not working), so we will not need it anymore. And it doesn't work against the 2.6.29 and 2.6.30 kernels.

I will work with the kernel developers to sort out the issues with gspca, but this package is going to unsupported if someone wants to use it with an older kernel while the problem with gspca is not fixed.
