This is still very much an issue for me, but not always; after a cold
boot it works but after a number of suspend/resume cycles or longer
uptime not anymore. MacBookPro5,5 with iSight usb id 05ac:8507 running
Ubuntu 12.04.1 (Precise) and Linux 3.2.0-33-lowlatency. When trying

I'm sad to report that my instructions do not permanently fix the

Cobbling together a few guides and bug reports I found elsewhere, here's
how I resolved this on my Macbook Pro 5,5 running Ubuntu 11.10.
1. Download AppleUSBVideoSupport driver file (e.g.
dl.getdropbox.com/u/332246/AppleUSBVideoSupport) and place at ~/Desktop
2. sudo apt-get install
Same problem here. iSight is almost always broken after suspend. I have
to do a fresh reboot to get basic functionality back.

** Description changed:
The integrated iSight webcam in Macbook Pro 5,3 that used to work fine
in Karmic no longer works in Lucid. The /dev/video0 device is not
created at all, although dmesg reports that iSight uvcvideo device is
there:

That was misleading. With no reboot in between, the camera stopped
working for no reason. I can't pinpoint the problem in dmesg but there
might be relevant data in :

/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.7/usb2/2-4/2-4:1.0/input/input25

I think ridgerunner's analysis of this as 2 bugs is spot-on.
Can I just confirm that none of the following has fixed this for me:
- installing latest isight-firmware-tools
- completely purging isight-firmware-tools
- flushing PVRAM
- compiling new uvcvideo
- installing upstream kernel

I experience exactly the same problem, what is more, it seems that ift-
load has the 05ac:8300 ID hard-coded into it, so even changing the udev-

reloading uvcvideo gives me the already known output:

Hi Michael,
If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that
would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine
the issue. Refer to

It seems that it's not usable anymore under Mac OS (dual boot). So I am
faced with the following question : is it a matter of coincidence that
my camera so happened to have stopped working (hardware defect), or
would it be caused by a software/firmware issue induced by 10.04.

It is a software issue. I can use the webcam in OS X, and if I do and
then reboot into Kubuntu without poweroff, the firmware stays loaded and
the webcam works.

I've got same problem on MBP 5,4 with 10.04 without isight-firmware-

solution of flushing PVRAM - unfortunately no change. But then, it
hasn't cleared up the long refit boot time either...

Never say never. My camera now works. The only action I took was to

I have this very same problem on the final release of 10.04 Lucid,
