Ubuntu 11.10 on 32-bit x86

Skype (beta) 2.2.0.35

I had the same problem with my Logitech QuickCam Chat, no video in
skype, only black screen

thanks to yours suggestions now it works!

i launched skype with the command: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-
gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype

ps: i found the right path with the command: locate libv4l

btw skype team should fix this as is closed software?

cheers
