I have the same problem with a Syntek webcam (in a Packard Bell EasyNote
MX66-205). The device ID in my case is 174f:a821.
Here' s a workaround:
1/ Temporarily flip the image (until reboot):
$ echo 1 > /sys/class/video4linux/video0/vflip
Or you can try:
$ sudo rmmod stkxx11
$ sudo modprobe stkxx11 vflip=1
2/ Permanent solution:
(1) sudoedit /etc/modprobe.d/stk11d
(2) paste the following line in that file:
options stk11xx vflip=1
(3) reload the kernel module
sudo rmmod stkxx11; sudo modprobe stk11xx
Hope this helps!
