You obviously have a degree in Googling :-) I searched for a similar problem
and didn't find anything ;-(
That is almost certainly the problem; the kernel was updated to V 3.5.0-27 two
days ago and this is the first time I'd used it since then. It looks like the
previous update, to V 3.5.0-25, took place on the 9th. Apparently V 3.5.0-26
fixes it, according to the thread that you linked.
Hopefully, Canonical will release 3.5.0-26 sooner rather than later; I can
live without the camera for a while at least. Just in case; how do I roll
back to 3.5.0-23, which apparently works?
My /boot directory includes:
abi-3.5.0-23-generic
config-3.5.0-23-generic
initrd.img-3.5.0-23-generic
System.map-3.5.0-23-generic
vmlinuz-3.5.0-23-generic
