As long as you have the "linux-image-generic" package installed, it will always "depend" on the latest official ubuntu kernel, so you'll still be getting kernel updates. Even if that was not the case, you can always have multiple kernels at any time, they will appear in your grub menu to choose from when you boot. And you can remove kernel packages you no longer need, any time. Anyway this bug report is not the place to discuss kernel building (there's plenty of resources all over the Internet for that), the purpose I posted the patch is for Ubuntu folks to pick it up so we all avoid kernel building.
At this point, I think all we (users) should be providing is our affected camera usb id's if the are NOT in the patch already, to be added, and hopefully convince Ubuntu folks to resolve this bug soon... I can't believe redhat fixed it already, and Ubuntu hasn't yet! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/843431 Title: Logitech camera microphone does not work / makes "chipmunk" sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/843431/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
