Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic
Hardware:
~$ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
MacBook4,1
Linux: Ubuntu 8.10 RC
The built-in iSight Webcam does not work. I have tested it with "Ekiga", Version 2.0.12.
I also tried to make it work according to the MacBook Ubuntu community documentation:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
I tried:
sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sda2 /mnt
sudo cp /mnt/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleUSBVideoSupport.kext/Contents/MacOS/* /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)
And in /etc/default/acpi-support:
MODULES="isight_usb"
The kernel seems to be loading the driver:
~$ lsmod | grep sight
isight_firmware 11008 0
usbcore 148848 10 btusb,appletouch,appleir,isight_firmware,usb_storage,usbhid,libusual,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd
But still no webcam in ekiga.
