So a while ago I bought this cheap Webcam. Here's how I got it working with Skype on Ubuntu:
1) sudo aptitude install v4l-conf
2) Run skype with export command:
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so; skype
And that's it! No compiling required.
FYI lsusb output is as follows:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0ac8:0321 Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. Vimicro generic vc0321 Camera
