If so, please file a report against one of the relevant packages (cheese or the appropriate gstreamer lib) so the error handling can be fixed. > Meanwhile, Skype (version 4.0.0.7-1 from Skype's > own Debian non-free repository) shows that a USB 2.0 camera exists > at /dev/video0 but video fails to be shown.
