I had the same problem using Ubuntu. It seems that the module ends up in
/lib/modules/2.6.12/usb/media/ and not in
/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-686/kernel/drivers/usb/media/ which is the
correct location for the modules with the kernel version I'm currently
running. I will assume that the UVC driver install procedure is correct,
so there is probably some link missing in the default Ubuntu
installation. Anyhow, manually moving the kernel object to the correct
folder makes modprobe and modinfo working.
