I already used Cheese in former version of Ubuntu
without problems.
Now i have on my desktop 32-bits computer installed Xubuntu
12.04 and also Cheese. When i start Cheese i get only a blank
screen for a while.
Following some advice on the FAQ i tried "sudo apt-get install
gstramer0.10-conf" but got the answer that the newest version is
already installed.
If i use Kamerka i get an image from the webcam. However the
image is hazy (not clear). I think this is due to my webcam
"microsoft vx1000" .
So before buying a new webcam i would have the concerned
applications running.
Many thanks in advance for some help.
This looks a bit cheesy to me. It is probably a driver problem.
Have you searched online for drivers? Microsoft may have them on
their website. Thanks!

I have had Cheese working on both Xubuntu vers 11.10 & 12.04.
Cheese version used is 3.4.1. The video cam is an old Logitech Quick
Cam IM connected by USB - 046d:08d9 at /dev/video0 - resolution is
set at 640x480. However, I have not been able to get it to work in
Skype [vers 2.20.35 - Oneiric] with either 11.10 or 12.04 Xubuntu.
The video cam is recognised but a "test run" in Skype gives nothing.
Using Cheese to record me looking intently at a computer screen is
not of much use - the idea was to contact grand-children via Skype
with Linux [Windows XP - with Skype works!]. I also need help.
