I just installed eeeXubuntu r3 and from what I can tell everything works fine other then webcam. The device is there v4l2 UVC Camera (eb1a:2761)
ucview just shows black frame and returns bunch of these in console:
** Message: Could not convert format: MJPEG ( MJPG ) 47504a4d to MJPEG ( MJPG ) 33424752
skype also sees the camera but both test and real call produces just black frame.
I tried the trick where I replace the intel_drv.so with xandros one, but no difference.
Anyone has any ideas?
Thanks.

Oddly enough (but not totally surprising) switching BIOS option OS Installation to Finished solved my webcam problem. I tested by switching back and forth and it's definitely it.

nedim, thanks so much! i had exactly your problem and solved it exactly the same way ... switch the OS install from start to finished in the bios!
after that i was able to run
sudo echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/camera
in the terminal and have fun w/ skype video beta

Thanks for this - I had exactly the same issue and setting the OS install to finished worked for me too :-)
