Hi,

Please look at /var/log/messages and post the vendor amd product ids 
that should appear when the device enumerates (which should happen as 
soon as you plug it in). If they are not 0x553/0x2 it is probably not a 
cpia camera. If you can look inside without breaking it, post the part 
number of the chip.  ST asics will start with "stv". If I remember 
correctly, cpia is an stv673. Keep in mind that it is not unusual for 
oems to change chipsets without changing their part numbers. This causes 
a lot of confusion, but they don't seem to mind.
