I have just tested my webcam "ID 0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam" on Windows Vista using XP drivers (DELL Inspiron 1525) and definitely is not a hardware problem.

It works, I may say, surprisingly well.

This bug is not yet fixed.

It is alive and kicking.

I was using Fedora Rawhide last week and this bug is also present there. ( 2.6.29 Kernel)

So, There is something odd or missing on the bug.

I hope the kernel dev team have a look on this issue in the Karmic cycle.

I'm available for further testing through launchpad.

Thanks for reading
