Bug Description
I have a Sony Vaio and my built in webcam doesnt work due to missing driver.
The lsusb information is
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 05ca:183a Ricoh Co., Ltd Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC7 [R5U870]
Now on some forums people have said that in gutsy kernel it works.
I have tried with jaunty and karmic and it doesnt work. So it is a REGRESSION.
Please this is a somewhat old webcam whose drivers were once there and worked. PLEASE fix this.
