  isight does not work in ubuntu gutsy - Video for Linux 2 (v4l2): Could
  not get buffers from device '/dev/video0'.

Bug description:
  I am running the latest update of gutsy. Ekiga shows only top fourth of the camera output. Although each time I restart it it gets the static picture - and only that top fourth is live video. Gstreamer-properties gives me the following message when I run video capture test:
  Video for Linux 2 (v4l2): Could not get buffers from device '/dev/video0'.
