I've gotten a kernel panic as well with the CPiA driver on all
the kernels I've tried (haven't tried 2.3.15 yet). I generally
can get a single frame grab okay using vidcat after detaching
the camera, rebooting the system, and the re-connecting the
camera. After the one good grab, it goes back to crashing.

I seem to recall that someone on the usb mailing-list finally
found the cause of the crashes so perhaps the 2.3.16 kernel
will finally give us a working driver (and maybe even with
color now!)...
