Cam Connect HD VF0750 with some exceptions Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Problem was discovered on Dell 6400 laptop (32-bit) after upgrading Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.40. Launching Cheese with Live! Cam Connect HD VF0750 webcam *sometimes* (randomly) gives no video, only black image. No errors are reported on GUI, console and syslog. You can start Cheese again and it might start video, but sometimes not, randomly. In case when there is no image, opening Settings and changing resolution makes video appear! Tried to downgrade libv4l-0, libv4lconvert0 to 14.04 version (1.0.1 I believe) but it did not helped. Upgrading to Linux 4.8 (from hwe package) did not helped either. On other laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 (with same 4.4 kernel from hwe package) there is no issues as such, so I assume it's bug with Cheese itself. Interestingly, on yet other laptop (Asus N551JM) with Kubuntu 16.04 Cheese does not show video on launch always (tested with many restarts of Cheese app). If I change resolution in Settings, it does start to show video thought. That computer is faster than Dell 6400 one, so I'm guessing it could be some kind race condition..? I cannot reproduce this issue with Camorama for example, it seems it always starts video successfully for this webcam.
