karmic koala beta testing - msi wind camera not working

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage . I have classified this bug as a bug in linux, as this is the place where web cam drivers live.

This bug looks to be related to this one:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/276495

Yes they are the same. This bug affects my MSI Wind. BUT the Acer
Aspire One 110 is not affected(camera is working on AAO110)

Actually the bug #276495 is older and has more information. Bug #441491 should be made duplicate of #276495, not the other way (as is now).

My MSI wind U123 exibits the same behavior. I wonder if this is a regression. This link (cached) from jaunty describes the exact same behavior as fixed via a kernel update:

http://74.125.93.132/search?q=cache:yYX2HiNehaUJ:forums.msiwind.net/internal-hardware/ubuntu-webcam-problem-t4047.html+msi+wind+setkeycodes+e06e+%3Ckeycode%3E+camera&cd=5&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

I agree that the older bug report has a bit more information.

MORE INFO:

Somehow the camera works fine on a Live CD/USB. but after installation
the camera does not work at all. I hope this info will help fix these
bugs. It looks inherent for both jaunty and karmic.

there is not much to investigate: USB hub drivers are not working properl. All people using the latest kernel from Karmic on MSI wind U100 are affected by this issue.
waiting for new kernel.....

I am not certain this is an issue with the kernel. I have an msi-wind that runs 8.10 happily and have been trying to upgrade to 9.04/9.10 for some time and the camera and various other issues have put me off. As part of my investigations I have run the 2.6.31-10 kernel in my 8.10 system and the Fn+F6 bug is then not present; so the bug doesn't appear to travel with the kernel.
