FC3 and my webcam

I had around a cheap webcam but were always unable to use it with
Linux since there weren't a proper driver in the 2.4 kernler serie.
Now, just for curiosity, I plugged it into my newly installed FC3
laptop and it is still not working but there is an improvement; here
is the log result:

Nov 12 08:56:25 hal9001 kernel: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device
using address 6
Nov 12 08:56:25 hal9001 kernel: usb 1-1: SN9C10[12] PC Camera
Controller detected (vid/pid 0x0C45/0x600D)
Nov 12 08:56:25 hal9001 kernel: usb 1-1: PAS106B image sensor detected
Nov 12 08:56:26 hal9001 kernel: usb 1-1: Initialization succeeded
Nov 12 08:56:26 hal9001 kernel: usb 1-1: V4L2 device registered as /dev/video0
Nov 12 08:56:31 hal9001 wait_for_sysfs[6811]: either wait_for_sysfs
(udev 039) needs an update to handle the device
'/class/video4linux/video0' properly (no device symlink) or the
sysfs-support of your device's driver needs to be fixed, please report
to <linux-hotplug-devel at lists.sourceforge.net>

Probably if I made my homeworks now I would be able to fix the thing
myself but this is not the case :(
Should I report this thing to the linux-hotplug ML, bugzilla.redhat.com or what?

thanks in advance
