Trying to get isight camera working on Intel iMac

[rmcellig]

So far, I have the required file from my Mac OS 10.5 installation sitting on my Ubuntu desktop. So far so good. Then I went into a terminal window to install the terminal tools. How do I launch the tools so that I can continue? This is what I get in the terminal window. See attached.

Thanks!

sudo dpkg-reconfigure isight-firmware-tools

[rmcellig]

This is what happened after the patch. Is there anything else I need to do aside from restarting and trying the camera in Cheese?
