Hi Christopher,

Thanks for following up and working on this !
I gave that machine to a family member with an external webcam.
I'll have access to the machine at the end of December for a few days.
Installing a development release of the full Ubuntu would be too much in
this case.
I would be happy to run test that doesn't require a full OS installation.

Thanks,
Edgardo.
