Some good news, official kernel 3.0.9 contains patches that fix this issue for several of the
affected webcams (C200, C250, C270, C300, C310, B/C500, Pro 9000),
so the patch posted here doesn't need to by applied to the oneiric kernel,
we just need the oneiric kernel updated to a newer version.
I believe the latest oneiric kernel 3.0.0-13 corresponds to official linux kernel 3.0.6 ...
How soon can Ubuntu maintainers update the next oneiric kernel to be based on 3.0.9 ?
