Yes, all Webcams where detected and working in Hardy and older version of
K/Ubuntu.

Five of the cams are Bus 002 Device 013: ID 093a:2471 Pixart Imaging, Inc.
SoC PC-Camera (Genius)

I've neved blacklisted those webcams to work.

I've already have installed libv4l, and does not work either. I did the
preload (in many apps, skype, kopete and amsn) and does not work... the cam
shows weird image...
