I've been using this for few years now with skype and no problems cam is
philips SPC 1000/1030NC (pc is dell latitude d520)

Encouraging. A Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000 and a Unibrain Fire-i
both work for other applications here. Skype has never produced
even a test image for either.

There is (was) a problem with the version of v4l libraries I seem to recall
with Skype. For some cameras you have to load an old version. If this
problem still exists I am sure that Google can track down the solution
which I used a while back with success.
