Last month we discussed the problems with webcams in CentOS 6 and I raised Bugzilla #1158988 with Red Hat. This bug has now been declared a duplicate of 1145805. Unfortunately I'm unable to access that report so although I know Red Hat are looking into the matter I don't know what they're doing.

Yes, I reported this same issue a couple of weeks ago.

Hey all,
The 6.5 to 6.6 update broke several items that I've discussed here. Some I have solved, others I had differed. Now I want to talk about my web cam issues. I have two web cams. This is what dmesg has to say when I plug them in and try to access them with Cheese Webcam Booth:
# Unplugged dev 2 camera usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 2 # Plugged in dev 4 camera usb 1-1: new high speed USB device number 4 using ehci_hcd usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1e4e, idProduct=0102 usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 usb 1-1: Product: USB2.0 Camera usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Etron Technology, Inc. usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device USB2.0 Camera (1e4e:0102) uvcvideo: UVC non compliance - GET_DEF(PROBE) not supported.

Anyone want to take a whack at solving this issue?

Well here's an update. My kids gave me enough shiny bits for Christmas so that I could assemble my new eight core machine to the point where I could start it up. No, it's not finished yet, but it's running like a scalded cat.
I made a clean new 64 bit install of 6.6 from the install DVD and then ran yum update. The web cam does not work with the new 64 bit machine either. I'm looking forward to the day when the kernel patch arrives.
