I have newly updated to 12.04-beta system with Logitech C910 webcam attached.
Skype-2.2.0.35 is installed. When I go to Options => Video Devices => Test, video shows up ok, but pressing close button doesn't stop video camera (blue light still up on the camera), and skype crashes shortly thereafter.

It may seem this is skype issue, but I know skype video works very well
with many other cameras, and most likely this is video driver issue.
Driver is supplied with Ubuntu.

I do not know if this worked with 11.10. But in 12.04 there is a clear issue.
And C910 is the about the top notch camera available today, Ubuntu should have no problem with it.
