XPS 13 Plus 9320, Linux drivers for the webcam

Hi, I understand that the linux drivers for the webcam of the xps 13 plus are not available in the official linux kernel. 

Will they be available at some point?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, are there any updates on this? I still cannot use the webcam on my 9320 almost 3 months after this question was posted.

Really?  There seems to be a difference between regular Ubuntu from Canonical, which doesn't include the special drivers that Dell provides with their Linux Special Edition.  I can't just install plain Vanilla Ubuntu and get my camera to work.  What I need is access to Dell's drivers, and yet all the tools fail to see a problem to download the drivers.  Not good Dell.  Your competitors are definitely beating you in this area.  It just shouldn't be so hard to simply download the drivers that I need, without Windows OS running in advance.  If anyone has insight, please comment.

Both Zorin OS and Mint cinnamon did not have a problem with my 9720.

Both are based on ubuntu and have build in drivers that worked well.
