Phil,

I installed a fresh breezy with all updates this morning.

$ uname -r 2.6.12-8-386

the spca5xx.ko included in the kernel still dosn't working. Try with these steps:

1) Download http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/spca5xx-20050701.tar.gz
2) sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.12-8 builds-essential gcc-3.4
3) tar xvfz spca5xx-20050701.tar.gz ; cd spca5xx-20050701.tar.gz ; make 
4) sudo insmod spca5xx.ko

Now you should see a new video* in /dev . To install new module:

5) sudo modprobe -r spca5xx.ko
6) Do a backup of /lib/modules/`uname
-a`/kernel/drivers/usb/media/spca5xx/spca5xx.ko and remove or rename it
7) sudo make install 
   The hand compiled module will in /lib/modules/`uname -a`/kernel/drivers/usb/
8) sudo modprobe spca5xx.ko
