I haven't tested it yet.
I'm going to do that on evening.

After kernel upgrade to 3.1.4-1 it's working like a charm.

Issue was marked as solved with Kernel 3.1.4 here:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=131108

However, the only kernel in testing atm is 3.1.3, and LTS kernel doesn't work so I'm wondering if it really is a kernel issue.

In other places I've also heard that people have had to install some 32-bit libraries for Skype webcam to work properly in 64-bit systems (I've installed Chakra from Bundles so I thought it would work off the bat -- is this not what the whole point about bundling it is?).

Thank You for any help!

What kernel update was the latest (updated from which version to what new version), when you noticed this?

Hello,
after last update I have a problem with my webcam SCB-0430N. It doesn't work any more e.g. with Kopete or any silmilar application like Skype.
When Kopete is running from Konsole I have following error:

libv4l2: error dequeuing buf: Resource temporarily unavailable

and I don't see any picture.

My hardware is:

lsusb | grep -i webcam

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0ac8:c33f Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. Webcam

dmesg | grep -i webcam

[    5.989517] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device WebCam SCB-0340N (0ac8:c33f)

Could someone help me, please?
