Since the 4.16 kernel my uvcvideo webcam on Thinkpad X1 Carbon (5th
gen) stopped working with gst-launch-1.0, kamoso (kde webcam app),
Firefox and Chromium on sites like appear.in, talky.io, Google
Hangouts and meet.jit.si.
It works fine in 4.15
The camera is:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04f2:b5ce Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
After further investigation, if I rmmod the uvcvideo module, and then
load it again, the camera starts working normally. But I get this in
dmesg:
