Comment 40 for bug 293259

I confess i am a bit curious about for when this problem will be solved in a milestone - would it be ready on 9.04 ?
Anyway, i suggested somewhere about 9.04 and 9.10 live-cd installer having also a webcam support, allowing you to have a '~/.face' acquired from that during the install process - i think this will help focusing the importance of a default and out-of-box webcam support...
Another question: in the meanwhile, is someone having any kind of webcam working on Ubuntu 8.10 ? if it is, and if it's easy to install, which ones are reccomended?
Thanks! =)
