There is still one problem with cheese.
1. If you take a photo using cheese, it flashes the screen and makes it all
white and after that never returns back to normal display. I have to press
Alt+Ctrl+F1 and kill cheese manually. This is annoying. The video is
recording is fine, but the photo has
Yes, indeed there is something that needs a fix. You cannot take photos now
suddenly for some reason the flashed screen now remains white and does not
return to normal display. Please change the status back to new.

My bad. I figured the problem. I had disabled the AT SPI Registry at startup

@Andres
Thanks for the help, man! I got it working on an Acer Aspire 5920 by
installing libv4l form Löic's PPA (kernel 2.6.27-11-generic)! BTW, it's not
related to bugs #303215 and #297890. Now I can finally rest in peace (my
friend wanted to kill me because cheese was working perfectly before
Evan, are you using a fresh install of intrepid or did you upgrade from
hardy? I'm just brainstorming here, but I've personally seen this happen on
three computers, and the only one that started working after a kernel update
was the one that had 8.10 installed from a formatted disk.

I don't want to be a nag, but I've just seen the same bug on an 2920 Acer
Aspire laptop. Here's what I've done:
1. Please don't try to compile from source UNLESS you know what you're
doing, OR you're willing to look for support at the mentioned forum
thread.
Ok. The user has tried that
I also can confirm the new kernel solved all the problems with my
Logitek webcam.

Odd, so many are having great success with this and I am still not
improved. Has the v4l2 video update been put into the proposed yet?

Will, were you careful enough to run all commands at once (instead of
line-by-line)? On my first time around, I didn't read the instructions and
ran them line-by-line and it didn't work. Running all at once did the trick
for me.

From what I have seen the update should just be of the kernel and v4l2
packages.
All right, so happy day. For me, enabling lool's ppa and installing the
updated libv4l AS WELL AS enabling the proposed repo and upgrading to the
-11 kernel has seemed to resolve the issue. Cheese works great for both
video and pictures at all the resolutions that I tried.
Thanks to all.

New kernels are placed into the -proposed pocket. You get them by activating
the checkbox for proposed updates in the sofware sources.

Hi All,
Everything was working fine when I was using Stefan's PPA kernel patch
2.6.27-8.17 smb2. Now I have a new kernel update and the kernel I am using
is
$ uname -r
2.6.27-9-generic
At this point, my webcam has stopped working correctly. Here is an output of
cheese -v.
$ cheese -v
[1] 16782
After last update of ubuntu kernel, and v4l package (which was in
updates), my cam began work correctly, but only on low resolutions
(even lower than 320x200). If I set higher - then I get error
described previously.

Stephan's kernel is now older. So you would have to use a regression in
order to make it work. If I understand right Stephan's patch was pushed
upstream and should make it in the kernel sometime after .10?

It'll get there when it's gone through due process. They certainly
don't want to introduce more bugs or fail to fix this issue for

Actually this did not help me, may be because I have a little bit different

I'm able to get cheese to work, as well as gstreamer-properties test, but
with a long delay. It take about a minute for picture to start showing in
gstreamer-properties test, and even more on cheese. However after
Cameras that can do 1600x1200 without lag aren't exactly cheap. I would
call what you just indicated an amazing success, and I may soon attempt to
