This seems to be something really related to oneiric (if coupled kernel or not), for all the cams worked in natty and none works in oneiric, despite of upgrading from 11.04 or install 11.10 from scratch.
Is there any update here? As this bug is "unassigned", can we hope for a solution? Would be silly to buy a new webcam just because having upgraded the software (and not silly but impossible with all the embedded webcams). Ubuntu claims "it just works! - but it is annoying if with an upgrade "it just does not work" any more... I am an end user so I have not too much possibilities to do anything relevant here, just cry for help and I hope my crying is heard... Until there is some solution I deleted oneiric and reinstalled natty on my "production" machine for I need the webcam functionality. Perhaps one should not stick to the 6-monts-rhytm with "new" releases if in every release there is that much neww that there is always something wrong. Make just one a year but make it working... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877768 Title: Webcam not working after upgrade from Natty to Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/877768/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
