The ppa was updated today and although my logitech 4000 pro still worked my integrated laptop on my DELL (uvcvideo driver) failed with the following error using cheese:

~$ cheese

(cheese:8039): GStreamer-WARNING **: pad source:src returned caps which are not a real subset of its template caps

libv4l2: error converting / decoding frame data: v4l-convert: error destination buffer too small

This did not occur prior to the update. I fixed this by reverting to the ubuntu 5.03 library. Now the webcam works.

So I guess the library still has some issues for other webcams.....
