OK, never mind the error I got in my last comment, it was not fatal -
the isight does work!
I think these are the steps:
Install isight-firmware-tools from:

[ 2076.313004] usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo
[ 2076.313009] USB Video Class driver
uvcvideo belongs to linux-ubuntu-modules.

\1, 1, TIMEOUT) 0)
Something goes wrong in this call, but I don't know how to debug
further. :-(
** Changed
The file is: ubuntu/media/usbvideo/uvc_isight_firmware.c in the linux-
ubuntu-modules source, if someone knows how to debug the the usb call.
