Luc Saillard tells me that it could be a bug in the camera or in the
driver.

If you plug the camera and unplug it, does it work again ?

Luc told me that he has seen a patch to fix that problem but it never
got applied :-/

See :
<luc> damien: the first logitech fusion has the bug too, i've seen some
patch to try to fix the bug ... but i don't know if it was applied
<luc> damien: and don't plug anything (like mouse, keyboard, usb1.1
device) on the same usb bus
<luc> else the camera is set in usb1.1 ans only some resolution are
available (at least for the logitech fusion)
