Webcam and ethernet not working after upgrade to kernel 3.8.0-30

[JJ Forneron]

I upgraded the Kernel to 3.8.0-30 in Ubuntu 13.04 and now the webcam does not work anymore:

When I start cheese I get:

** (cheese:5411): WARNING **: cheese-main.vala:256: Error: No device found
(cheese:5411): cheese-CRITICAL **: cheese_camera_device_get_device_node: assertion `CHEESE_IS_CAMERA_DEVICE (device)' failed

** (cheese:5411): CRITICAL **: cheese_preferences_dialog_setup_resolutions_for_de vice: assertion `device != NULL' failed

I also tried accessing it with VLC:

v4l2 demux error: cannot open device '/dev/video0': No such file or directory

and the ethernet problem is the same as with previous 3.8 kernels: wifi works fine but ethernet shuts itself down after a while.

 It works with 3.8.0-29, here is what I get in that kernel:

I tried to re-install the kernel as well - no luck. It could be a regression. From the previous release.

in 3.8.0-29 I also get
ls /dev/video*
/dev/video0
whereas 3.8.0-30 gives me ls: cannot access /dev/video*: No such file or directory
same for /dev/video0.

I am running 13.04 on a Toshiba Satellite-C650 laptop.

Thanks for the help!
