[linux-uvc-devel] Unlisted UVC device

[Guus der Kinderen]

Hello,

On http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ there's a request to make mention of
unlisted devices to this mailing list. I'm unfamiliar with this community,
or Linux driver development in general. I'm guessing that dmesg output will
provide you with the relevant information. Please let me know if more
information would be helpful.

This was taken from an Asus laptop (model R753U T4160T), running Ubuntu
16.10.

I found this page while looking for advice on how to tune the webcam.
Although it is functional, it's video is of poor quality and appears to be
zoomed in to an extend. It's workable, but only barely.

Any help is much appreciated. Regards,
