Wow. "Thank you" or "please" wouldn't hurt. But you're right, I didn't
post much details. Thanks for kicking me into it.
That page is for general troubleshooting and installation. I didn't do
anything, just plugged it in and worked.
The camera model is iNTEX IT-305WC (reported as Z-Star Microelectronics
Corp. ZC0303 WebCam by lsusb)
I also commented its entry in the Linux USB database:

And added it to the Skype Webcams page (much as I don't like Skype, I
tested it):
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeWebCams
lsusb reports this:
0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam
Cheers,
Fabian
