Comment 76 for bug 280657

>kyleabaker I'm also having similar trouble getting the Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000 working in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic x86_64. I can't get anything other than the green screen problem.

in cheese and mplayer green screen (with some yellow haze), and
"Error decompressing JPEG: unknown huffman code: "
