[Bug 282473] Re: cheese and other webcam software malfunctioning with PWC webcam (was cheese doesn't work with my webcam (Philips PCVC740K ToUcam Pro))

Hi,

I had the same problem with the green screen on cheese, Ekiga and Skype.
I added the following repositories

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lool/ubuntu intrepid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/lool/ubuntu intrepid main

I installed the following:
lib32v4l-0
libv4l-0

And the webcam now works. The only problem is that its in b&w, dunno how
to set it to color; any ideas.

M

btw This is the original website I found the ppa's in : http://guiodic.wordpress.com/2008/11/04/risolvere-il-problema-della-webcam-su-ubuntu-intrepid-ibex/
Also I include the requested info:
2.6.27-8-generic x86_64
Ubuntu 2.6.27-8.17-generic
