Info about computer and software

The built-in camera of the netbook asus eee pc 1000h is not recognized.
It stopped working after upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04.
It is still not working with Ubuntu 12.04.
It used to work with the 10.xx LTS version.

I tried updating drivers following the instructions here http://git.linuxtv.org/media_build.git but it still doesn't work.

Please refer to this for other people's descriptions:

Attached is the information requested in the bug reporting instructions, except that I didn't find a scripts directory, or a ver_linux file.

Thank you in advance for any help !

 - Edgardo.
