I installed the kernels in the link. I confirmed 4 times that the web cam now works fine. I booted into my previously installed .17 kernel, the web cam did not work. I booted back into the customer kernel. We cam worked again.

I ran:
dmesg | grep uvcvideo

The only output was:
[ 16.071908] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Monitor Webcam (05a9:264a)
[ 16.072857] usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo

Note that after booting into the .17 kernel, I had to reselect Monitor Webcam in the gstreamer-properties video tab.
