Running AMD_965/MSI_gd70/BFG_9800-gtx+:

My KK_9.1 install is a week old and apparently performing without issue; the LogiTec webcam has always worked. I've followed all advised updates.

This morning the webcam failed, with CHEEZE showing a square of color_bar/'fizz' instead of my smiling face ... what gives? Yes I did try a "hotplug"! How can a hardware component & dedicated app just crap-out? I would have thought THEY had their own sandbox to play in -- play once play always.

also you may need to resize the cam in cheese
