Public bug reported:
Webcam (Microsoft LifeCam Cinema) works properly in guvcview, but not in
cheese on 11.10 32-bit. Worked in cheese on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.
Opening cheese from the terminal gives the following series of messages:
$ cheese
(cheese:2740): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to add a widget with type
GtkImage to a GtkToggleButton, but as a GtkBin subclass a
GtkToggleButton can only contain one widget at a time; it already
contains a widget of type GtkLabel

The cheese window opens successfully, but the video is blank (black) and all of
the buttons are greyed out. All of the menu entries are greyed out as well,
with the exception of:
Cheese -> Quit
Edit -> Move to Trash
Edit -> Move All to Trash
Help -> Contents
Help -> About
It is not even possible to access Preferences to see if changing any
options would help.
