Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it without more information.
Please include the information requested at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingHa rdwareDetection as separate attachments.
Also, do you know if the webcam works in Ubuntu at all (like with skype or another video conferencing or streaming application)? Thanks in advance.
