Toshiba Satellite A200-28P, built-in webcam & infrared.

Does anyone here have a Toshiba Satellite A200-28P, and if so have you managed to get the build-in webcam and infrared working? I've tried a few different modules and programs, yet haven't been able to get them working. I can't even find the names of the components from google, so I'm a bit stuck really.
These two things (and one of the media keys that the kernel doesn't see, but that's not much of a problem) are the only things preventing this laptop from working perfectly with Arch.

What chipset does the built-in webcam have?

I have no idea, as I said, Google has been very unhelpful this time, and the Toshiba website is just as useless.

Can you get anything webcam related from lsusb or lspci? I found out the model of my webcam from lsusb. Well, the xxxx:xxxx identifier, which I Googled.
