This is a regression from v3.4 final. Many models of Logitech webcams stopped working as starting in v3.5-rc1.

I was able to reproduce this bug with a Logitec C250. It's going to be a little difficult to bisect since I ran into a USB bug that does allow any USB devices to work.

The USB bug was fixed in v3.5-rc3, and I was able to reproduce the webcam bug in that kernel.

So to recap testing:

v3.4 does not have this bug.
v3.5-rc1 has a separate USB bug preventing testing of the webcam.
v3.5-rc2 has a separate USB bug preventing testing of the webcam.
v3.5-rc3 the USB bug is fixed and the webcam bug is reproduced.
v3.5 daily still has the webcam bug.

There is also a bug opened on Launchpad[0] against the Ubuntu distro. Hardware details and logs are available from there, or upon request.
