I have installed your patched 32 bit kernel as above, (with libv4l-0.5.7) and have unsuccessfully tested on skype and cheese, see below output.

It's also worth noting as per my earlier post where I applied the patch to 2.6.27-10, which the camera worked but the built in microphone stopped working, the microphone doe's not work with your patched kernel.

Hope this helps
