Xbox Live Vision not working anymore with Kernel 3.1.3 and uvcvideo

Hello Everyone,

I have a problem with my Xbox Live Vision webcam. It works perfectly with Ubuntu, Windows etc... but when I try to connect it with arch... nothing happens...

First I tried just to connect but no software could find the webcam (like cheese), so I "modprobe" the usual module (uvcvideo) for this webcam to work (In the 2.* versions of the kernel this was the module requiered to make the webcam work..)...

With this module enabled, the webcam is recognized, and the light of the webcam turns green (saying that it is recording), but nothing is showed, only a black screen.

How can I solve this problem ?

Thanks in Advance and sorry for my horrible english :S...

Maybe the same issue as here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=131108
My webcam didn't work with 3.1.3, too and works fine with 3.1.4 now.

I think I'll just wait for the release of the 3.1.4 kernel then ^^
