(Solved) Skype - No video Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000

Solved the problem. Skype didn't like the front usb port. Plugged it in the back and I've got picture! I wasted way too much time on this! Thanks for feedback.

Edit: webcam video works just fine with guvcview in the front usb port - the one that's easy to get at!

Really strange, but I will try that too.
My camera is connected via an hub which itself is connected onto one oft he rear usb-ports.

I'll connect it directly, maybe that helps here too.

It is a well known fact that a lot if devices do not like 2nd hand slots. I had problems with a usb-stick in a hub. It wrked inefficiently with strange errors.

Well using it her eon the rear port didn't help.
I'll wait for next version to try another test.
In the meantime I'll try/experiment with ekiga.
