I'm using Jaunty and I can confirm this issue. In Jaunty, the default libv4l version is 0.5.8 (http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/libv4l-0).
I installed version 0.5.98 from source as #13 suggests, but that didn't work (picture still green). I also installed version 0.5.9-1 from Karmic with Gdebi, but that didn't work either (both Cheese and Ekiga crash with the error message "memory override"). Finally I got it working by installing version 0.5.99 from source. Here is how: 1. download and unpack http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/libv4l-0.5.99.tar.gz on your computer 2. install build dependencies with command: sudo apt-get build-dep libv4l-0 3. go to correct directory: cd libv4l-0.5.99/ 4. compile: make 5. install: sudo make install PREFIX=/usr 6. shut down the computer completely and then turn it on again for to camera to reset Now it works correctly for me! I guess this bug will be automatically fixed for Karmic if it will contain the libv4l version 0.5.99 -- iSight camera images have green/purple tint https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345080 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
