Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: restricted-manager

Hi Martin,

as we discussed on ubuntu-devel mailing list, the iSight webcam needs a
firmware to work.

The kernel module is called:
isight_usb
and it is autoloaded via modaliases (it's a USB device). See also 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=mjg59/ubuntu-gutsy-lum.git;a=commitdiff;h=2e69cd564dacf5d81eb2e46610a5f7b55c52d34f

The firmware is available here (in the directory firmare/)
http://files.i-nz.net/projects/linux-kernel/isight/uvcvideo-isight.tar.gz

or here (see the section on how to extract it from the MacOS partition):
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook

Cheers
Fabio
