I have added the bug to libv4l because I think that's where the real
problem lies. The solution to this problem is quite simple. Type on
terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libv4l
sudo apt-get install libv4l-0 libv4l-dev
Then you will have the libv4l updated and everything will be back to
normal, at least in my case. Cheese and gst-launch-0.10 will start
having normal colors again. However, there is something that I could not
solve. It's the problem with Skype. Even if you update the 32 bits
library (sudo apt-get install libv4l-0:i386), the color problem is not
solved. However, with the help of v4l2ucp you can change the saturation
pattern and get a much more reasonable output.
I have spent a long time trying to get my webcam working, so I hope this
can help other people.
