Due to the licensing problems with the jpeg decompressor, it isn't
possible to get this fixed easily for an out-of-box experience for
releases older than Jaunty. Users will be expected to get the latest
decompressor source and compile it.

The newer kernels now support the jpeg decompression and thus we should
focus our attention to fix that driver. Please test with latest Jaunty
and gspca_ov519 driver.


** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Incomplete
