Comment 5 for bug 290169

I can confirm this too.

I also noticed that if i open Cheese and press on the Effects button, and then press it again Cheese will crash. A backtrace is attached.

I am unable to identify the hardware through either lspci, lshw or lsusb. In syslog i can see the following:

I opened xsane (without a scanner plugged in). The led next to the cam will flash, and xsane fails to start - it thinks my webcam is a scanner...

I guess we can blame uvcvideo (the driver) for our problems.
