Public bug reported: The webcam on my Acer Aspire 5920G doesn't work properly- when starting the camera using Ekiga or Cheese or luvcview, initially all looks well. However, after a few seconds (usually between 5 and 20) the camera stops, with the window displaying a corrupted image. I also observed this behaviour with another 5920 (not G!).
