I just tried out the CPiA driver on 2.3.12. It still crashes
but at least I'm getting the "Oops" screen instead of the
instant reboot that 2.3.11 gave. Looks like the USB stuff as
a whole is lot better in 2.3.12!

For what it's worth, here's the Oops data that occurs when I
do "vidcat > test.jpg" using the CPiA driver:
