I am the submitter of this bug, and it should be closed for now. I have not been able to reproduce the correct function of the skype .deb file on Jaunty on the Asus 1000HE, which means this may not be a regression. (Believe me, I've tried... A lot...) Installing the current skype .deb file on Jaunty UNR has not produced good (well lit) webcam images as I believed when I reported this. Something else may have already been on the system because of my testing, but what I do not know. Perhaps something from the Medibuntu repository.
The webcam problem is not resolved -- extremely dark webcam images using the skype .deb from the skype site -- but I cannot demonstrate this to be a regression at this time. If I can reproduce it as a regression again. I will create another bug report with my findings.
