My /var/log/messages gives me this ID:
Product: USB Dual-mode Camera
usb.c: unhandled interfaces on device
usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x553/0x202) is not claimed by any active dr=
iver.

However I found out, that it works with stv680 module somehow. It just
doesn't work that good (camstreams can't read from the device after a few
hours, and the program freezes, camserv crashes on load).
