I tried it with Ubuntu 12.04 on my Vaio VGN-FE48M: I checked that the camera is
working properly by using the video option menù of Skype but the computer
freezes after a few minutes of test. Here is the result of uname --all:

05ca:18b5 is not a supported model, and r5u87x does not interact with
this camera whatsoever. Running “sudo r5u87x-loader” on your laptop

I have a 05ca:18b5 Ricoh Co., Ltd webcam, on a Sony Vaio laptop, and used to

Hi there,
I just walk someone through the installation of this ppa, good work by
the way, and a tiny problem rose up.
It seems that bitbucket changed its archive structure and that triggered
a bug in /usr/share/r5u87x/r5u87x-download-firmware.sh
line 79:
cd r5u87x
should be changed to:
cd ahixo
Thanks for the heads-up, Mark. I have just uploaded a new version of the
packages that should fix this issue.

The driver R5U870 is being replaced by a set of R5U87x userland tools

At this moment the WDM webcameras are only supported by the previous

Yeah, sounds like the module isn't getting inserted into the kernel again,
which is, well, very odd by itself, heh.
However, the loader reports an error if it gets a non-zero return code when it
reloads uvcvideo, so if it failed or didn't exist it would bail. We shall soon
