I couldn't understand how to find a photo booth program in the new- style menu+desktop (not the classical menu with sections), so I remembered the popular cheese Linux program, and installed it via the Software Update tool (or whatever it is called; can be invoked from the panel on the desktop). But cheese doesn't start, i.e., it crashes. As I said, the camera could be used by the OS on this machine -- this could be seen in the installer.

[Ac100] [Bug 1035208] Re: touchpad stops working (moving the pointer doesn't work)
It just happened right now. I've saved dmesg output and the X's log. (Attaching them.) There are no nvec messages in dmesg. But there are two ec messages. Are they important? I've checked once again the behavior of the touchpad when this happens: movements don't work, but scrolling doe work (at the right side of the pad with a single finger), clicking does work (by hitting the pad, or with the buttons underneath -- both work). I tried to press F9: this turned the tocuhpad competely off. Then I pressed F9 once again: and this resulted in the same errpneous situation: movements don't work, other things do work (scrolling, hitting). So it's not a matter of F9. And it's not matter of complete disconnection. Please tell me: What to do further to diagnose the source of the error? ** Attachment added: dmesg (when this happened once again) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ac100/+bug/1035208/+attachment/3264709/+files/dmesg2.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of AC100 Team, which is subscribed to AC100_enablement. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1035208 Title: touchpad stops working (moving the pointer doesn't work) Status in Enablement project for the Toshiba AC100 NetBook: New Status in XOrg-Driver-Synaptics - synaptics driver for XOrg: New Status in xf86-input-synaptics: New Status in “linux-ac100” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Sometimes, in my Ubuntu 12.04 system on Toshiba AC100 (ARM), the touchpad doesn't react to movements anymore: i.e., I move the finger, but the pointer doesn't move (it is even being hidden because there are no movements).
