Built-in webcamera vs. Skype

Hi,

since the latest kernel-update my system doesn't recognize my built-in-webcamera either in terminal nor in Skype:

[burkon64@arch ~]$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 046d:c018 Logitech, Inc. Optical Wheel Mouse
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

In Skype I have got a message "No devices found."...

With LiveCD (for example SuSE 12.2, Manjaro 0.8.1) the same result, too...

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Re: Built-in webcamera vs. Skype

well i guess you do not have some sort of hardware switch off ? Maybe the best practice will be if you boot some older kernel ( or live distro ) and see at least what module you need for it.

Re: Built-in webcamera vs. Skype

because with same kernel you have different behaviour, imho it's not a strictly kernel related problem

are you sure to have updated only the kernel?
