Happy to say that Cerin prescription works also for me. Cheese had stopped working, as described in the OP, and now works. New install of Ubuntu 14.04.03 on an ASUS G73JW with Nvidia GTX- 460M and proprietary driver.

I am not entirely sure when the problem started. But now Cheese does not start. $ cheese The window doesn't load. there is an error (when starting from the terminal) cheese: error while loading shared libraries: libwayland-egl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have a similar problem with the User Accounts. Some update borked this wayland library being linked correctly. I am sure there is a fairly easy workaround.... but I would like it to be fixed, and not happen to anyone else.
