Just did some testing this morning. Although web cam works after BIOS upgrade, it is loosing picture once you try to close a lid.
You don't even have to even close laptop lid, just slightly move it up or down. cheese gives error message "could not read data" I could have thought this is hardware problem, but other people reported similar issue. Also if I reboot laptop (suspend also helps, but only sometimes) while web cam is multifunctional web cam comes back to life again. web cam works after suspend, but only if you have suspended laptop thought ubuntu "suspend button" without moving lid. very strange, newer seen something like it before. I can install windows to confirm that this is software and not hardware related. Any more diagnostic we could do from Linux?
