I believe this is because of the latest auto control patch that is  
missing from Ubuntu 8.10. By the way could mention contributors in the  
patch comments, that's what I try to do in other projects at least if  
I commit patches modified or sent by others.

The problem is that this camera only supports MJPEG and Skype wants  
YUV format. I have got Skype working on Ubuntu 8.10 by using the  
gstfakevideo hack (google for more info), but even then it doesn't  
work perfectly. Also the sound input needs to be set to ALSA because  
pulseaudio+skype sucks as well. In general Skype is a bit crappy.
