Yes, I do. Video works fine, image is right side up.
I can't remember doing anything fancy, tricky to set it up.
Sometimes I need to start another application, like emesene(msn client 
w/webcam support) for skype to grab the image from the camera, but not 
always.

It's a Logitech QuickCam pro 4000, don't know why dmesg doesn't know 
what it is.

There's not much here that can be of help to you, except that it's 
possible to get it working and there's hope. If there's anything else 
you wish to know, feel free to ping me and I'll do what I can.


Issues atm are.

The negative sbsize repeats thousands of times.
