Comment (by gnu):

 jg, I don't know which camera I have.  dmesg says "i2c_adapter i2c-1:
 SMBus Quick command not supported, can't probe for chips." then
 "!OmniVision ov7670 sensor driver, at your service".
 I'll disassemble and look.  ...

 Well, I'm not sure what I should be looking for.  I see a flat cable that
 exits UNDER the camera, behind the right speaker.  It says "P052" on the
 top line, and "52C1.1" below that.  This may be only part of what's on the
 cable -- the rest is obscured by white pastic.  I don't know if it's the
 right cable, but I don't see any other flat cables near there.  I didn't
 remove the main circuit board.  The camera is directly in front of a USB
 port.  The metal around that USB port is marked "SUYIN" on the back, where
 it's attached to the main circuit board.  I have photos if this helps.
