Thanks!!

I got it working now.

For everybody:

I downloaded the isight-firmware-tools from here

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/i386/isight-firmware-tools/1.2-2

and installed it with
sudo dpkg -i isight-firmware-tools_1.2-2_i386.deb

Then:
 - mount the hfs+ partition with nautilus
 - run :
             ift-extract -a /media/Macintosh\ 
HD/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleUSBVideoSupport.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleUSBVideoSupport
 
 - reboot

Status in Mactel Support: New
Status in “linux” source package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic

Hardware:

~$ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
MacBook4,1

Linux: Ubuntu 8.10 RC

The built-in iSight Webcam does not work. I have tested it with "Ekiga", 
Version 2.0.12.

I also tried to make it work according to the MacBook Ubuntu community 
documentation:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook

I tried:

sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sda2 /mnt
sudo cp 
/mnt/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleUSBVideoSupport.kext/Contents/MacOS/*
 /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)

And in /etc/default/acpi-support:
MODULES="isight_usb"

The kernel seems to be loading the driver:

~$ lsmod | grep sight
isight_firmware        11008  0 
usbcore               148848  10 
btusb,appletouch,appleir,isight_firmware,usb_storage,usbhid,libusual,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd

But still no webcam in ekiga.
