Yes, if you have installed Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic, you should be able to
do that using Empathy. This should help [1]

is too confusing, no one with a right mind will be able to follow any of these suggestions to install a webcam to work with IM.
better to just not use or go back to windows 7

Can you help with this problem?
