[Bug 1047493] [NEW] Camera photo taken by ubuqity is dim despite good quality preview

[Zygmunt Krynicki]

Public bug reported:

This has been tested on Thinkpad W510 and 2nd gen VAIO-P using 12.10
beta 1 ISO

Expected result:

The picture saved by Ubiquity looks the same as it did in the preview
window

Actual result:

Ubiquity displayes a proper preview but takes dim picture with incorrect
colors

Description of the problem:

The ubiquity page that offers to take the users' photo displays a
bright, properly-lit preview. Once the 'take photo' button is pressed
the camera is turned off momentairly and back on again (as does the LED
next to the camera) - to take the picture (presumably). The picture
taken is very dim and has incorrect colors. It looks like the preview
window in the first second (or so), before the camera sensor/firmware
adjusts the picture settings.

** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
