I've gone 100% Ubuntu at home for a while now but I still can't get this darn built in webcam to work correctly. When testing with gstreamer-properties and luvcview, I get greenish garbled video. I can't get any picture in Skype and Cheese even though the light comes on signaling the camera is working.
I am running Ubuntu 32-bit 9.04 and keep it up to date. It seems like this thing is supposed to work right out of the box but I just can't get it and it's frustrating me. Anyone have any solutions?
dmesg output when running sudo modprobe uvcvideo:
[31966.879862] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Laptop Integrated Webcam (05a9:2640)
