The device works fine on a Pentium system (RedHat 7.x) with a similar vintage kernel.
Can you try it with the kernel from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/ak/test7/
[on SLES8 you may need to install it with --nodeps --force, but it works]
It took a while for me to get around to this, and in the mean time I got UnitedLinux SP3, which includes k_smp-2.4.21-143. I'm having slightly less trouble with the Microtech USB Cameramate, in that puging and unpluging the module hasn't crashed the kernel, yet, but I still can't read the medai.
