MSI StarCam 370i Webcam on Jaunty

[Dotan Cohen]

I have the MSI StarCam 370i Webcam and I need to get it working with
Jaunty. According to this page, "The StarCam 370i
is compliant with UVC, USB video class":
http://gadgets.softpedia.com/gadgets/Computer-Peripherals/The-MSI-StarCam-370i-3105.html

According to the Linux UVC driver and tools download page, "Linux
2.6.26 and newer includes the Linux UVC driver natively" which is nice
as I am on a higher version:
$ uname -r
2.6.28-15-generic

However, plugging in the webcam and testing with camorama, cheese, and
luvcview led me to no results:

jaunty2 at laptop:~$ luvcview -f yuv
luvcview 0.2.4

SDL information:
 Video driver: x11
 A window manager is available
Device information:
 Device path:  /dev/video0
Stream settings:
ERROR: Requested frame format YUYV is not available and no fallback
format was found.
 Init v4L2 failed !! exit fatal
