Update (Aug. 27, 2008) -- None of the above will work, but there is finally a working driver for the Microdia USB2.0 ( 0c45:627b ) camera. Details are here: http://groups.google.com/group/microdia/ As of today, the default driver setting has extreme contrast/whiteness issues, however development appears to be very active so Z61m users running Linux should be able to use the onboard camera soon (as well as other USB users).
