Hi Hector, I'll not be close to my box until wednesday, so I can't give
you the whole steps to patch the ubuntu kernel source. Nevertheless you
can use the package available in that blog entry:
http://files.i-nz.net/projects/linux-kernel/isight/uvcvideo-
isight.tar.gz

You just need to unpackage it, have linux-headers installed, do a make
and sudo make install

I think this will substitute the other driver (may come first in the
list while loading), but you can also delete the one you listed and
issue a depmod -a to rebuild the list.

The patch no longer holds to the latest linux-uvc svn version, but the
package has the right version (100).

Tell us if it works ok.

It would be nice if this landed on feisty before release, since it
builds perfectly with the uvc version Ben added, but there must've been
too low interest or something to have a working iSight on default
install, guess the goal to have good MacBook support wasn't really
important. At least this bug report was ignored.
