Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 17.10 beta, Cheese does not provide an image from the camera nor does it offer to attach to it in the prefs settings.
Machine: Macbook Pro Retina 13" with a Facetime HD (Broadcom 1570) PCIe camera. Hardware works under macOS -> Seems software or driver issue. On a similar Macbook the image comes up immediately (with a Facetime HD camera attached to USB) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: cheese 3.25.90-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.12.0-13.14-generic 4.12.10 Uname: Linux 4.12.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.7-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Sep 7 20:12:57 2017 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-09-05 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170902) MachineType: Apple Inc.
