I have a weird issue.

Relevant lsusb:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04f2:b23b Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd

It's a built-in cam in a laptop. The problem is it doesn't work. Not
with Skype, not with luvcview. However, if I do

chmod 666 /dev/video0

It then works fine.

Another thing, here's my errors.log:

Oct  2 03:01:38 localhost udevd[318]: timeout: killing 'usb_id
--export /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-3' [514]
Oct  2 03:01:39 localhost udevd[318]: timeout: killing 'usb_id
--export /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-3' [514]
Oct  2 03:01:40 localhost udevd[318]: timeout: killing 'usb_id
--export /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-3' [514]

As you can see, this updates every second with the same message.

Because of this problem, I've discovered also that I cannot suspend my
system, and it often fails to properly turn off as well.

Luckily I have an option in BIOS to disable the webcam. If I do so,
the system functions perfectly fine.

Googling the VID:PID codes yielded no real results. Apparently
uvcvideo module still doesn't support this camera.

Any help?
