[Bug 984603] Re: Skype video freezes right after few first frames

 

I have the same problem for any application that uses the webcam,
including skype and googletalk. Apparently it is a problem with the
gspca driver. Whe the problem is present dmesg reports:

[19245.046799] gspca: bandwidth not wide enough - trying again

some ubuntu versions ago, the driver was spca5xx, which worked fine.
Some people argue that the solution is in installing a new (probably
unofficial) kernel version. What could be the compilation flags that are
creating the problem in the official kernels??
