Had the same problem with cheese and camorama does not detect the webcam but it works with skype. With Cheese, it either gives a corrupted image or it shows nothing while the webcam indicator light is still on. It sometimes crashes when closed but the crash went away after an update I tried using kernel 2.6.24-21 leftover after upgrading from hardy and everything works perfectly. When an update for 2.6.27-9 went out, I tried it again. It now just shows a blank image while the webcam indicator light is on. All that in an Aspire 5630 (the gma950 version). On an Aspire one, the webcam works without any hacks being used.
