Hello, I have the same problem, only I'm using 8.10 of Ubuntu (64 bit).
I installed Cheese Webcam Booth, but it only shows a bunch of colors.
I have the Dell Studio 1535 laptop, and I want to get the webcam to work.

Yeah, I am not sure if its just a driver issue that we are stuck with or what. I'd be nice if people who actually give us a response on it.
I'm having a similar problem with my Dell Mini 9. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 as the preinstalled version from Dell was not responding and infected with something. Now, I lack the preinstalled Webcam Manager and Dell literally drops my call every time when they see that my warranty was up 2 months ago. They are cold monsters.
Does anyone have this problem? Should coding solutions with other Dells work with my mini?
Help...Thank you!
