Bug Description
Camera worked fine when I was running Debian 6. It also worked during the installation routine for Ubuntu 12.10 when I successfully took a picture of myself for the login screen. The camera works in Cheese if I spin up a Fedora 17 Live DVD. But in Ubuntu 12.10 in cheese, skype, or Google+ all I ever get is a black screen.
Running hwinfo --usb gives:

comment: first try, more to come ;-)
