    UBUNTU: Add V4L2 support for Built-in Apple iSight camera

    OriginalAuthor: Ronald S. Bultje, Johannes Berg, Ivan N. Zlatev
    OriginalLocation:
http://files.i-nz.net/projects/linux-kernel/isight/uvcvideo-isight.tar.gz
    Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/127584
    Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/105638

    This driver is based on a slightly older version of the uvcvideo driver
    shipped with linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22 and it differs from the original
    tarball by isolating the usb id's to cope only with iSight cameras.

    Users will still be required to install the firmware manually.

I am not sure we can ship the firmware at all so I didnĀ“t include it. Also note
that I could not merge the isight support into uvcvideo because upstream did
change too much for an easy merge. USB ID's have been isolated in the isight
driver to not interfere with uvcvideo.

Thanks
Fabio
