You have been subscribed to a public bug:

A hardware profile is attached. Any application that accesses my
laptop's onboard webcam is flipped vertically. Obviously I can correct
it in Cheese by using the "flip image" effect, but in programs such as
Skype or Chat Roulette, the native image of the webcam is flipped. I
have read information here    http://radu.cotescu.com/2009/11/05
/flipped-images-ubuntu-webcam/   regarding this issue, and if I
understand, it is supposed to be fixed with libv4l 0.6. The version in
10.04 is higher than that, and the image is still inverted.

All updates have been run as of April 12th, 2010  8:33pm CST

Help?

Thanks
