Thanks for your reply.
The problem is that I have to this host only remote access via ssh and can  
not use graphic tools. When I try to write data from the device is also an  
error.

I need to just get jpeg images from the camera.
On the other host, where the camera 0ac8:305b everything works well. As  
with version gspcav1 and with gspca v2. When I access the device  
/dev/video using dd I get the data.
