Configure a Canyon CN-WCAM313 webcam

[Magyari, Balázs]

Thank you for this link, I found out that this Canyon webcam might
have a "Microdia" chipset inide, as with lsusb it lists this word only
for the found device...
There's a useful webpage http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/devices.php
which listed some canyon webcam and said they worked with spca5xx
drivers. I guess then my cam should also work with it if I'm lucky.
Which is the easiest way of configuring a webcam with spca5xx? Just
installing the spca5xx-source or easyspca package is enough or more
config should be done? (I tried to install and run Easycam2 but the
app didn't start for me.)
I found this page too:
(http://ralph.n3rds.net/index.php?/archives/124-Webcam-installation-scripts.html)
and installed easyspca (and zenity) and tried to install the driver
with it but the script was terminated. The dialog said the spca5xx
module was not found...
:-(
