HI,
using Xubuntu 12.04.01 since a few weeks I hit now the point to activate my webcam within skype. Unfortunately the webcam is neither working within Skype or within Cheese. I only see a black frame with no content. I guess the webcam isn't detected as a video device at all.
Not till few days ago I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10..
I started Ekiga to check the Webcam's functionality, it gave some very weird video output! White and Black, zoomed in to an upward position of the main frame, plus it streams a wavy picture output..
On Cheese and aMSN, the output was pretty neat but in Black and White..

I'm not sure when, but my ubuntu machine stopped responding to front usb ports. Any device plugged into the rear of the machine work fine, but the front don't do anything. My phone won't even draw power when plugged into the front. I am using the ringtail experimental build, but they were working fine last night.
The lsusb command returns

hello,
for the past three or four days, the microphone on both chrome and firefox has stopped working. It's impossible to record or make phone calls. On the other hand, it works great on skype.
I'm on xubuntu 12.04 and still have the original sound settings - any idea of what's going on?
In a former article I’ve talked about the XMPP:Jingle protocol to find a good replacement for Skype.
Some people asked me about Ekiga, is this a good software or not ? and how you can use it ?
Ekiga (formely known as GnomeMeeting) is an open source SoftPhone, Video Conferencing and Instant Messenger application over the Internet.
