Running 13.04 64-bit on a Lenovo Z570 for over a year now and the
Easycamera webcam has never worked. I can see it in Cheese, but it is
extremely dark. I have to be in basically full sunlight to see anything
on my side. If it has been fixed in 13.04, it hasn't made a difference
in my machine.

Title:
  Lenovo EasyCamera not working

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The Lenovo EasyCamera is detected in Ubuntu 12.10, 64bits but does not
  work.

  Skype, Gmail chat, etc detect the camera (under /dev/video0) but the
  camera output is a black screen and the camera light never gets
  activated.

  I've tried solutions as the one depicted here without luck:
